Catholic Wisdom

"To obtain the protection of our Blessed Lady in our most urgent needs, it is very useful to say 63 times, after the fashion of a Rosary, "Virgin Mary, Mother of God, pray to Jesus for me." When we make this prayer to our Blessed Lady, we give her every possible praise in the fewest possible words, because we calle her by her name of MARY and give her those two great titles of Virgin and Mother of God, and then we name JESUS the fruit of her most pure womb."

—Saint Philip Neri, Maxims and Counsels.
