This is the image of our queen

May is one of the months dedicated to our blessed mother, Mary, Queen of Heaven and Earth.







This is the image of our Queen
Who reigns in Heaven above;
Of her who is the hope of men,
Whom men and angels love!
Most holy Mary!

This homage offered at the feet
Of Mary's image here
To Mary's self at once ascends
Above the starry sphere.
Most holy Mary!

How fair soever be the form
Which here your eyes behold,
Its beauty is by Mary's self
Excell'd a thousandfold.
Most holy Mary!


Sweet are the flow'rets we have culled

This image to adorn;
But sweeter far is Mary's self,
That rose without a thorn!
Most holy Mary!
