there is an old Hungarian folk tale where when the red rose and the briar grow out of the lovers' graves the mother of the woman comes and tramples them, so they grow back, so she burns them, but they grow back, so she does something else and finally destroys them (the flowers)... I have seen very old, medieval stained-glass illustrations. |
