Legend has it that a unicorn's horn could purify poisons with a mere touch, a power celebrated in the 14th century text, Physiologus.
When a snake 🐍 tainted a vast lake, leaving many animals thirsty, a noble unicorn graced the scene.
With a mighty gesture, it made the sign of the cross with its horn, cleansing the toxic #water, allowing all creatures to drink safely. ✝️💦
What a miraculous gift!
