St Mary's Stained Glass Windows
St John The pen and book which St John holds are another of the symbols for the Evangelists. At the bottom is depicted a chalice from which a serpent emerges which is based upon a story of his enemies attempting to kill him by poisoning the Communion wine and his miraculous escape. The serpent coiled round a sword recalls man's sin and the power of the Holy Spirit to overcome it. |
