'Sumptuous Angels' is a phrase which I have heard used before, when describing some of the angels on the Stained Glass Windows.
However, on yet another brilliantly blue-skied day the phrase came to mind when I was standing outside the front door with a friend. Despite the bitter cold, the setting sun and the waning crescent moon bathed the carved stone of the building with a wash of silvered gold.
How is it that we have been so lucky, this winter to have had so many beautiful days?
A hard winter certainly, and it's not over yet, but as we continue into Lent we must give thanks for these small signs.
