The Lady and the Saints: In Three Cantos is a book written by Robert Cruikshank and published in 1839. The book is written in poetic form and is divided into three cantos. The story revolves around a lady who is visited by three saints, each of whom represents a different aspect of Christianity. The first saint represents faith, the second represents hope, and the third represents charity. The lady is initially skeptical of their message, but over the course of the book, she comes to embrace their teachings and becomes a devout Christian. The book is notable for its use of allegory and its exploration of Christian themes. It is also notable for its illustrations, which were created by the author's brother, George Cruikshank, a well-known illustrator of the time.
