Hail, O Lady, holy Queen, Mary,holy Mother of God, who are the virgin made church and who are the one chosen by the most holy Father in heaven, whom he consecrated with his most holy beloved Son and with the Holy Spirit the Paraclete, and in whom there has been and is all the fullness of grace and every good. Hail, His Palace! Hail, His Tabernacle! Hail, His Home! Hail, His Robe! Hail, His Handmaid! Hail, His Mother! And all you holy virtues, who through the grace and illumination of the Holy Spirit have been poured into the hearts of the faithful, so that from their faithless state, you may make them faithful to God.
The Salutation of the Blessed Virgin Mary written by St. Francis of Assisi
“Omnipotent, most holy, most high and supreme God; all good, supreme good, total good, you who alone are good; we give you all praise, all glory, all thanks, all honor, and blessing and every good. So be it. So be it. Amen.”
