In the year 1591, a series of intriguing events unfolded across different parts of the world. In North Berwick, Scotland, the infamous North Berwick Witches were accused and tried for their alleged involvement in witchcraft. Among them was Dr Fian, who met his fate in a chilling churchyard. Meanwhile, Saint John of the Cross, a Spanish mystic known for his profound spiritual writings, passed away during this eventful year. His legacy continues to inspire seekers of divine enlightenment to this day. Across the Atlantic Ocean in Florida, Native Americans thrived in their vibrant villages. A colored engraving by Theodore de Bry after Jacques Le Moyne de Morgues captures one such village scene from 1591. The depiction showcases these indigenous people skillfully curing fish and game on a barbecue – an art they had perfected over generations. Theodore de Bry's artistic talent also immortalized another aspect of Native American life: hunting crocodiles (or alligators). In yet another engraving from 1591 based on Jacques Le Moyne de Morgues' lost drawing, we witness Florida Native Americans fearlessly engaging with these formidable creatures. On a completely different note, Trinity College Dublin continued its pursuit of knowledge and education throughout this period. The institution stood as a beacon of intellectual growth amidst all these historical occurrences. Queen Elizabeth I found herself at Elvetham during this time – perhaps seeking solace or strategizing her next move within the walls of this grand estate. Ste Louise De Marillac left her mark on history as well. Her tireless efforts to serve society led to the establishment of various charitable organizations that continue to make positive impacts today. Lastly but not leastly (if that is even a word), Sir Richard Grenville commanded The Revenge during its epic battle against the Spanish fleet off Flores Island. This valiant act showcased courage and determination against overwhelming odds – an inspiring tale that echoes through time.
