LET US PRAY Pour forth, we beseech Thee, O Lord, Thy grace into our hearts, that we to whom the Incarnation of Christ Thy Son was made known by the message of an angel, may by His Passion and Cross be brought to the glory of His Resurrection. That we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ. Be it done unto me according to thy word. Holy Mary, Mother of God, Pray for us sinners, Now and at the hour of our death. Hail Mary, full of grace, The Lord is with Thee Blessed art thou among women, And blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. The Angel of the Lord declared unto Mary. Its name comes from its opening words in Latin, “Angelus Domini nuntiavit Mariæ.” This prayer is well suited to the artist’s subject matter: two humble people paying homage to our Lord and His Blessed Mother in the Hail Mary, as well as in Gospel verses recalling His Incarnation as the Word entered the World.
