House of the Bishop by Ellen Beier, from Les Miserables
     In this image, Jean Valjean returns to the house of the Bishop: from the (abridged) text: “What a wretch I am!” he exclaimed, and he burst into tears for the first time in 19 years. Valjean realized that he had to change. When the church clock chimed three on that morning, he was kneeling in prayer at the bishop’s door.

Image by Ellen Beier from Sybil Ludington's Midnight Ride

I know we are already into Spring and flowers, but here it just keeps on pouring—endless rain! Here is an image from Sybil Ludington's Midnight Ride by Marsha Amstel. This is what it looks like outside my window—well ... without the horse.
