They called her Madame Eglantine. That names means honeysuckle, but it could just as well been the welcome and lovely name of lilac which sweetens the days of mid spring, with a kiss of incense (for a nun) and a float of citrus. Shy and beautiful.

The Prioress is the head of a convent, and she is first shown to be a rather pretentious woman and then she tells her tale of a dead child coming to life and singing in a rather shocking tale of piety.
