The Rosary: Conclusion: The Crown of Roses at Mary’s Feet
We have woven our spiritual crown of roses at the feet of Mary, Queen, our Mother of Mercy, whom, after Jesus, we hail as our life, sweetness and our hope. Mourning and weeping and wandering in vale of tears, still hopefully have we cried to her, knowing that she, our powerful advocate in Heaven, will hear our heart-rending sighs and turn her eyes in love towards us poor banished children of Eve. And when our exile here below is ended the clement, the loving, the sweet Virgin Mother of Jesus, will show us the “Fruit of her womb.”
Queen of the Most Holy Rosary, Help of Christians, Refuge of sinners, pray for us, sinners, now and at the hour of our death. Amen.
