"VITA, DULCEDO ..." *
To Mary, Mediatrix of Grace
A stream as of stars
from on high,
misted, gold drifted down
the dark sky -
grace from thee
shall enliven dead earth,
O Lady of Love.
And up from the depths
of dull shame
shall be lifted a song
in thy name,
fit to rival
the angels' clear mirth,
thou, Cause of all Joy!
Sister M Julian RSM
The Catholic World. August 1955
