A Virgin - a person remembered in history

St. Agnes of Rome - the Roman Canon by Meryl Viola Bravo
I found this person to be a real historical figure and why was she remembered; because of her Virgin character as a woman in the Roman Catholic Church.

The Virgins of the Roman Canon and the reality of sign and significance is not a legend nor an old tale passed on from listeners to listeners taking what they want for their own fulfillment; they are real human persons who lived and died.  The living remember them.  The death never died.  And the life in them is recalled at every Sacrifice laid on the Altar we are entitled as Christians to worship in the Mass.

What was it about St. Agnes of Rome and her name?

Agnes and her long beautiful hair.
Clare and her long beautiful hair.

The hair of a woman.

Was it their intention?
Was it her feminine condition?

When I recalled her finding, there was a Bridegroom who loved her, and espoused to her though no man could see unless, he was a Bridegroom could see.

The heart of St. Agnes and St. Clare is that attentive virginal heart for her Bridegroom to some day find the BRIDEGROOM of the invisible and yet, visible.  And how she had to neither fight for it nor see it thoroughly defined in her.  Because he was defining her.
