"Mother of my Lord, give me the Spirit of my Redeemer"

"O Our Lady, my Sovereign, you who direct me, Mother of my Lord, Servant of your Son, Mother of the Creator of the world, I come to pray to you.

I beg you, I implore you, to obtain for me the spirit of my Redeemer, to be worthy to know you as you are, to speak worthily and truthfully to you, and to say all the truths about you that deserve to be told."

Saint Ildephonso of Toledo
