    Ancient Prayer to the Blessed Virgin
    (Translated from the Irish of the 8th Century.)
    O great Mary,
    Mary, greatest of Marys,
    Most great of women,
    Queen of the Angels,
    Mistress of the heavens,
    Woman full and replete with the grace of the Holy Spirit,
    Blessed and most blessed,
    Mother of eternal glory,
    Mother of the heavenly and earthly Church,
    Mother of love and indulgence,
    Mother of the golden light,
    Honour of the sky,
    Sign of tranquility
