Woman! above all
women glorified,
Our tainted nature's solitary boast
Our tainted nature's solitary boast
William Wordsworth,
“The Virgin”
“If you look at everything that is beautiful and
admirable in the heavens, on earth and in all creation, do you find anything,
anything more beautiful than Mary? Only he who created her surpasses her. In
creating her, God sought his own good pleasure and he seems to have exhausted
his power. God cannot raise a creature to a higher dignity than that of the
divine maternity.” Blessed William Joseph Chaminade, 17th
Meditation, Retreat of 1822
