Girlskin is the finest parchment!
Sycophantic addresses to the Emperor were written in purple ink on vellum,
so when Eulalia had been scourged she cheekily thanked her persecutors
for 'writing the praises of God in purple on my skin'!
Reading that and her other feisty impudence when I was about 13
made me think, what a great girl, I want to be her!
