II THE VISITATION Sweet Mother Mary, meditating on the Mystery of the Visitation, when, upon thy visit to thy holy cousin, Elizabeth, she greeted thee with the prophetic utterance, "Blessed art thou among women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb!" and thou didst answer with that canticle of canticles, the Magnificat, I humbly pray: Our Father, 10 Haily Marys, Glory Be to the Father. and the Fatima Decade Prayer: O MY JESUS, forgive us our sins, save us from the fire of Hell, lead all souls to Heaven, especially those who are most in need of Thy mercy. I bind these snow-white buds with a petition for the virtue of CHARITY and humbly lay this bouquest at thy feet. |
