Sturminster Newton, South aisle window, detail of St Elizabeth of Hungary (now often called Elizabeth of Thuringia). Artist: Harry Clarke. The roses in her arms refer to the legend that when surprised by her brother-in-law taking bread under her robe to the poor, she told him that she was carrying roses to weave into a crown. whereupon the bread turned into roses.
