Convert Xaml Path into C# code

I have a XAML path as

<Path Width="30" Height="40" Stretch="Fill" Fill="Red" Data="F1 M 36.4167,19C 44.2867,19 50.6667,24.6711 50.6667,31.6667C 50.6667,32.7601 50.5108,33.8212 50.2177,34.8333L 36.4167,57L 22.6156,34.8333C 22.3225,33.8212 22.1667,32.7601 22.1667,31.6667C 22.1667,24.6711 28.5466,19 36.4167,19 Z M 36.4167,27.7083C 34.2305,27.7083 32.4583,29.4805 32.4583,31.6667C 32.4583,33.8528 34.2305,35.625 36.4167,35.625C 38.6028,35.625 40.375,33.8528 40.375,31.6667C 40.375,29.4805 38.6028,27.7083 36.4167,27.7083 Z "/>

How do I covert it into the code in C# such as:

public static Grid Icon()
{
    Grid mygrid = new Grid();

    string thedata = "F1 M 36.4167,19C 44.2867,19 50.6667,24.6711 50.6667,31.6667C 50.6667,32.7601 50.5108,33.8212 50.2177,34.8333L 36.4167,57L 22.6156,34.8333C 22.3225,33.8212 22.1667,32.7601 22.1667,31.6667C 22.1667,24.6711 28.5466,19 36.4167,19 Z M 36.4167,27.7083C 34.2305,27.7083 32.4583,29.4805 32.4583,31.6667C 32.4583,33.8528 34.2305,35.625 36.4167,35.625C 38.6028,35.625 40.375,33.8528 40.375,31.6667C 40.375,29.4805 38.6028,27.7083 36.4167,27.7083 Z";

    Path path = new Path();
    path.Height = 40;
    path.Width = 30;
    path.Fill = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Red);
    path.SetValue(System.Windows.Shapes.Path.DataProperty, thedata);

    mygrid.Children.Add(path);

    return mygrid;
}

The code above having problem. any suggestion?

You are getting this issue because "thedata" is a string.

To fix this issue, use the Geometry class to parse "thedata" string: 

    public static Grid Icon()
    {
        Grid mygrid = new Grid();

        string thedata = "F1 M 36.4167,19C 44.2867,19 50.6667,24.6711 50.6667,31.6667C 50.6667,32.7601 50.5108,33.8212 50.2177,34.8333L 36.4167,57L 22.6156,34.8333C 22.3225,33.8212 22.1667,32.7601 22.1667,31.6667C 22.1667,24.6711 28.5466,19 36.4167,19 Z M 36.4167,27.7083C 34.2305,27.7083 32.4583,29.4805 32.4583,31.6667C 32.4583,33.8528 34.2305,35.625 36.4167,35.625C 38.6028,35.625 40.375,33.8528 40.375,31.6667C 40.375,29.4805 38.6028,27.7083 36.4167,27.7083 Z";

        Path path = new Path();
        path.Height = 40;
        path.Width = 30;
        path.Fill = new SolidColorBrush(Colors.Red);
        path.Data = Geometry.Parse(thedata);

        mygrid.Children.Add(path);

        return mygrid;
    }
