Quiz Question: What did Sant Jordi give to the princess after rescuing her?
The given options are:
- A book of poetry
- A bill for services rendered
- A red rose
Correct Answer: A red rose
Info: Giving a rose as a gift is still common on Sant Jordi’s Day, and red roses are used as decorations for the celebration. Originally, men gave women roses, and women gave men books. But a gift of books to both men and women is more common now. Giving books honors Shakespeare and Cervantes, who both died on this day in 1616.
