SALUTATION TO THE
BLESSED VIRGIN MARY


Hail, holy Lady,
Most holy Queen,
Mary, Mother of God,
Ever Virgin;
Chosen by the most holy Father in heaven,
Consecrated by him,
With his most holy beloved Son
And the Holy Spirit, the comforter.
On you descended and in you still remains
All the fullness of grace
And every good.
Hail, His palace.
Hail, His tabernacle.
Hail, His robe.
Hail, His handmaid.
Hail, His Mother.
And hail, all holy virtues,
Who, by the grace and inspiration of the
Holy Spirit
Are poured into the hearts of the faithful
So that, faithless no longer,
They may be made faithful servants of God
Through you.


St Francis of Assisi
