Summary

Description

Church of the Assumption, Our Lady's Island, County Wexford, Ireland


English: Quatrefoil stained glass window in the clerestory, depicting Solomon's throne and the Latin text Thronus Salomonis. This is a reference to Our Lady which is to be found in the Latin poem O maria o felix:

Solomonis thronus es eburneus
visionis electrinus urceus
david sitim satians puteus
tu septenus cereus
donis septenis radians

In the translation by Susan Hellauer[1]:

You are Solomon's ivory throne,
vision's amber water jar,
the well that slakes David's thirst,
you sevenfold waxen light
shining forth with seven gifts
