The two main panels of the south nave window show three women at the tomb where Jesus had been laid, meeting with an angel on the morning after Jesus had risen from the dead, as told at the beginning of Mark, chapter sixteen.

“And when the sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, and Mary the mother of James, and Salome, had bought sweet spices, that they might come and anoint him. And very early in the morning the first day of the week, they came unto the sepulchre at the rising of the sun. And they said among themselves, Who shall roll us away the stone from the door of the sepulchre? And when they looked, they saw that the stone was rolled away: for it was very great. And entering into the sepulchre, they saw a young man sitting on the right side, clothed in a long white garment; and they were affrighted. And he saith unto them, Be not affrighted: Ye seek Jesus of Nazareth, which was crucified: he is risen; he is not here: behold the place where they laid him.”

The text along the bottom section of the window spanning the left and right panels reads “Know that my redeemer liveth, though worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God” which is a reference drawn from the book of Job, chapter nineteen.

At the top of the window a small central panel depicts an angel holding a golden crown.
