It follows on from events in scribblesinink's In The Bleak Midwinter. Continuing the theme started with that story of using quotations from the poems of Christina Rossetti as titles for this story arc, the title here is the last line of Rossetti's Consider the Lilies of the Field. Thanks to Scribbler (scribblesinink) for the beta.
