Saint Martha: Note dragon. tip to Linda at Under the Gables
"Despite her reputation as a domestic saint, invoked for helping cook, running a household and maintaining the family peace, she's also a dragon-taming saint," and in her portraits she is always portrayed as having tamed a dragon who lays at her feet. Such is the civilizing achievement of Saint Martha.
If only Jill Bolte-Taylor (from my previous post) had spent more time getting to know Martha and Mary instead of being in the science lab all the time I truly believe her experience with the stroke would have been even more revealing.
