I’d be lying if I told you that the theme today didn’t make me look for Teresa, Mandela, Kalam, and the like on the grids. However, when I found FAITH in the bottom right and JUSTICE right beside it, I realized what it was. We are talking about virtues, and VIRTUENAMES turned out to be the Spangram for the day.
Next, I found HOPE in the leftmost column and GRACE on the opposite end of it. After this though, I hit a bit of a wall and had to use a hint. That gave me FELICITY and the remaining grids led me straight to PRUDENCE. And, that’s all for today’s Strands!
