Diana - The Goddess of Hunting

Diana the Huntress
Guillaume Seignac ((1870-1924)

[Latin, the Roman moon goddess and patron of virginity and hunting, whence also Old & modern French diane.]

2 A young woman with the chastity or hunting skill of the goddess Diana. L18

3 More fully Diana monkey.

"Of all the ironies about Diana, perhaps the greatest was this:

Earl Spencer speaking at the funeral of his sister Diana Princess of Wales (1961-1997)
