Black fine line script tattoo of the words God is within her, she will not fall, Psalm 46:5, across the upper back near the shoulder blade.

Psalm 46:5 script across upper back

Fine line · Back · Black and grey · Photo

A close photograph of a woman's upper back showing a scripture quotation in cursive lettering. The text reads God is within her, she will not fall, with Psalm 46:5 set on a separate line to the right. The linework is fine and even, in black ink with no shading, and the image is a single-colour composition focused on the text against the skin.

A story inspired by this tattoo · fiction

Brother Edwin, you will think me foolish to write by candle while the sun is still over the fen, but the ink has thickened in the cold and I must write while my fingers still answer. Prior Oswy has set me to fair-copy the psalms for the new chapel at Holme, and I have reached the forty-sixth, the one the old women chant when the water comes up over the causeway.

I wrote God is within her, she shall not fall, and then I stopped, because the Latin on my exemplar says God is in the midst of her, and the English our novices use runs differently again. I could not decide which words carried the right weight. I took the pen to the parchment four times, and each time the ink ran into a blot the shape of a sheep's ear.

Yesterday the flood took the bridge at Sallow. Sister lfgyth came up the cloister with her wet skirts and asked me to set the verse in letters a child could read from the far bank. So I used the good hand, the round and looping one you taught me, and I gave each stroke room to breathe. When I held the page to the window, the light came through the thin skin and the words looked almost like threads of water.

I have sent it with the carter. If the waters rise tonight, you will know by the strokes whether I was steady.
