The best objective summary of "Una and the Lion" is Option C- A fearful young woman encounters a ferocious lion that ends up befriending her and becoming her great protector.
William Bell Scott drew the painting of "Una and the Lion" which was inspired by Edmund Spenser’s sixteenth-century poem "The Faerie Queen". Una is described in the poem, "The Faerie Queen", as the lovely little daughter of a king and queen who are held captive by a fierce dragon. Una sets out on a mission to save her parents, but along the way she comes into a dangerous lion. The lion is so mesmerized by Una's innocence and beauty that he decides against eating her and makes the commitment to become her companion and protector instead. Una may be seen walking alongside the lion and resting her fingers in its magnificent mane as they move through the autumnal woods.
If I threw myself a surprise party it would be held at a planetarium and I would invite Brian May (guitarist for the band Queen, and astrophysicist) so I could ask him about his life and tell him how much I love his work in all forms (music and science).
