St John Chrysostom

Tota Pulchra es O Maria:

"Thou art all-beautiful, O Mary;

In thee there is no stain of original sin;

Thou art the glory of Jerusalem,

The joy of Israel,

The honour of our people,

Thou prayest for the sinners,

O Mary, Virgin most prudent,

Mother of divine grace,

Intercede for us with our Lord Jesus Christ."

"I will put enmities between thee and the woman, thy seed and
her seed; she shall crush thy head, and thou shalt lie in wait for her heel"
(Genesis 3:15)
