摘要：

'Wisdom it was I loved and searched for her from my youth. I resolved to have her as my companion. I fell in love with her beauty ....' At the funeral mass for Margaret MacCurtain, her grandnephew, Michael, read the first reading from the Book of Wisdom, a moving and appropriate text with which to begin a celebration of Margaret's life. The words carried an added significance as Michael's reading emphasised that wisdom was represented in the biblical verse as female. Copyright © The Author(s), 2022.
