For they shall be comforted

Taking precious seeds
And come with joy

The angelic salutation

'Hail, Mary, Mother of grace!'
So the angels were singing to the Virgin Mary
while she was struggling with herself in her prayer.
 
'Mary, you shall conceive a son!
Heaven and earth are yearning for
you being the Mother of the Lord.'
 
'O Angels, how can I live to see that.
I have not had a husband yet
in this big wide world.'
 
'Like the dew falls upon flower meadows,
the Holy Spirit shall overshadow you,
and the Saviour shall be born.'
 
Mary was delighted at hearing this,
saying, 'I am a handmaid of the Lord,
be it done unto me according to thy word!'
 
The Angels sank to their knees.
They all sang, 'Mary, Mary!'
They sang the praises of Mary.
