Tuesday, August 15 : Saint Amadeus of Lausanne

Let us honor the queen of heaven, mother of life, source of mercy, overflowing delights, leaning on her beloved. Let us praise her, knowing full well that our praise will be insufficient. Risen above the tallest trees of paradise, and exalted above the highest peaks of mountains, she will penetrate heaven with incredible majesty accompanied by ht singing of the choirs of celestial angels and surrounded by the dancing of angels. Happy are those who dwell in your house, O Lord, they will praise you without end! In you we praise not Eve who introduced the poison, but Mary who gave life, who is the mother and nursemaid of all, the life of all the living. In you we praise even our own mother. May all hear and rejoice, the humble virgin rises, crowned, to the throne of glory, may the humble rejoice.May those who exalt themselves in their presumption fall. Marie who gives herself as a holocaust to the fullness of grace. May the blessed virgin, unique in her merits stand in the presence of her creator interceding always in our favor. She will be radiant in the fullness of glory, she who brought forth from her virginal womb the king of glory.
