Book Description

Excerpt from The Greater Men and Women of the Bible: Mary Simon God bloweth where it listeth, and to her we owe one of the most majestic hymns of the Church Catholic. It mattered nothing that she was not learned after the fashion of the scribes; she had seen the angel who stands in the presence of God; it was less than nothing that she lived in a house of two rooms, since it opened into Eternity. For her Divine motherhood Mary was prepared twice - once because she had so little of the world which is seen, once because she had so much of the world which is not seen.
