Mary, Model of Interior Souls

It seems to me that nobody has penetrated the mystery of Christ in its depth except the Blessed Virgin. Saint Paul often speaks about "the understanding" that was given to her, and yet just look at how all the saints remain in the dark when one contemplates the clarity of the Blessed Virgin! [?] The secret that she pondered and kept in her heart, no tongue has been able to tell, nor pen translate. May this Mother of Grace form my heart, so that her little child be a living and striking image of her first-born, the Son of the Eternal, the One who was the perfect praise of the glory of his Father.
