Summary

Description
English: St Francis and St Monica Right-hand half of a four-light window by F.C. Eden in Little St Mary's Church in memory of Mary Hamblin Clay (1860-1929). Francis of Assisi, flanked by birds and holding a crucifix as symbol of his stigmata, quotes the opening of the deuterocanonical Morning Prayer canticle Benedicite Omnia Opera Domini Domino "O all ye works of the Lord, bless ye the Lord", a model for his own Canticle of the Sun; Monica, mother of the theologian St Augustine of Hippo, is accompanied by an angel bearing a monstrance, and her text is from the Vesper Psalm 125/126, v. 5: "Qui seminant in lacrimis in exultatione metent - They that sow in tears shall reap in joy". Mrs Clay had a special devotion to St Francis, and Monica recalls her involvement with the Mothers' Union.
