THE JOYOUS MYSTERIES
II.
THE VISITATION
6
Exulting, leaped to hear:
His mother in the Mother of her Lord
Interpreting the Word.
And whence is this to me that the Mother of my Lord should come to me?
Luke i, 43.10
III
THE NATIVITY
So small that lesser lowlinessMust bow to worship or caress:
So great that heaven itself to know
Love's majesty must look below.
Unto you is born this day, in the city of David, a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord.
Luke ii, 11.18
V
THE CHILD IN THE TEMPLE
Among the sages while He sat,And they delighted heard,
None knew the Child they wondered at,
Was God's Eternal Word.
19
They found Him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors.
Luke ii, 46. | The rosary in rhyme | |
