Noli Me Tangere

[poliphilo]

The risen Christ appears to Mary Magdalene on an 18th century gravestone in Hadlow churchyard. She has mistaken him for the gardener- unsuprising, really, given that he is carrying a spade.

Perhaps he used it to dig himself out of his grave... seems a very handy thing for a carpenter to be buried with if he were planning to get up again soon.

*innocent* :)

I wondered about that myself :)

Now I want to draw Jesus with a shovel. *sigh*

After a year of college Latin, noli me tangere is the only phrase I remember.

I'm glad to be putting it to good use this morning.

Love your photos!!!

Thanks.

I did years and years of Latin- and am left with very little.

Can I request a poem out of that line?

Ah....

Well, I'll sleep on it. See what comes.
