medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture

Dear Genevra

Neither of them give an explanation to this attribution. Hueck follows
Schwarz's opinion that it's the Sibyl from the Dies Irae, but unfortunately
she does not develop the argument.

Regarding the Notre-Dame figure, indeed it seems C19...

*Tamara Q**uírico*

Gather ye Rose-buds while ye may,
Old Time is still a flying:
And this same flower that smiles to day,
To morrow will be dying.

Robert Herrick (1591-1674)
