Visit to the Blessed Virgin Mary
Her bands are a healthful binding.
-----Ecclus.
vi. 31 The devout Pelbart says [
Stellar.
1. 12, p. 1, a. 2] that
devotion to Mary is a chain of predestination. Let us beseech our
sovereign Lady to bind us always more closely by the chains of love to
confidence in her protection.
Ejaculatory Prayer. O clement, O pious, O sweet Virgin Mary.
[From the Naples Edition.]
Prayer of St. Germanus of Constantinople.
Most holy Virgin! who art the greatest consolation that I
receive from God, thou who art the heavenly dew which assuages all my
pains, thou who art the light of my soul when it is enveloped in
darkness, thou who art my guide in unknown paths, the
support of my weakness, my treasure in poverty, my remedy in sickness,
my consolation in trouble, my refuge in misery, and the hope of my
salvation; hear my supplications, have pity on me, as becomes the
mother of so good a God, and obtain for me a favorable reception of all
my petitions at the throne of mercy. [
Encom,
in S. Deip.]
Ejaculatory prayer. O merciful, O pious, O sweet Virgin
