  1. 1. Our Blessed Lady on coming to a certain town noticed that her child was in need of a wash. She went into a house and asked the woman of the house for water to wash her child, and the woman gave it to her. The woman of the house had a child who was covered with sores and she washed her child in the same water and the child was cured at once. Then the woman threw the water outside the front door of her house and lovely lilies grew up.
    2. The Blessed Virgin was going up to Calvary to see the place where her son was crucified. On her way back she began to cry, and everywhere a tear fell a lily sprang up and there was a lawn of lilies leading up to Calvary.
