  1 Prol |          wholly to the praise and glory of God. Therefore, for the
  2 Prol |      Therefore, for the honor and glory of Our Lord Jesus Christ,
  3 Prol |          my life, and the supreme glory and praiseworthiness of
  4 Prol |     delight than to preach on the glory of the Virgin Mother." And
  5 Prol |     reflects the life, grace, and glory of Mary, it is not unfittingly
  6 II   |        greatness of the grace and glory of Mary, for whom, instead
  7 II   |        prepared by God so great a glory in Heaven, and as she was
  8 II   |       Solomon, great in grace and glory. St. Bernard well says: "
  9 II   |        great a degree of singular glory did she gain in Heaven."
 10 II   |            nothing of splendor or glory which does not shine in
 11 III  |      earth was enlightened by the glory of him.... The Son of God
 12 III  |          earth illuminated by the glory of Him is Mary, who, as
 13 III  |         is now illuminated by His glory in Heaven, that, being thus
 14 III  |         and by the rewards of her glory.~Mary is the light-giver
 15 III  |           by her most resplendent glory, which illuminates the whole
 16 III  |           things, and full of the glory of the Lord is his work" (
 17 III  |           the Lord is full of His glory; the most excellent work
 18 III  |        this world, is full of the glory of the Lord in Heaven. Thus,
 19 III  |         Mary, giving light by her glory, hath looked upon all things,
 20 III  |           the illumination of her glory. What wonder if the presence
 21 III  |           also by her resplendent glory.~Now we have to consider
 22 III  |         be eternally illumined in glory ! O Lady Mary, help us that
 23 V    |        her, not only in grace and glory, but in mercy so high, so
 24 V    |          joy, the Blessed Trinity glory, the Person of the Son the
 25 V    |          gracious woman will find glory" (Prov. XI, 16.) Behold
 26 V    |          the finding of perpetual glory. Most useful was the grace
 27 V    |           prerogative of singular glory?" Likewise grace made Mary
 28 V    |         gracious woman shall find glory" ( Prov. XI, 16. ) O truly
 29 V    |         grace in this world, such glory in Heaven. And certainly
 30 V    |          she found both grace and glory with the Lord, for as it
 31 V    |          Lord will give grace and glory" ( Ps. LXXXIII. )~But the
 32 VI   |      saith: "This is the singular glory of our Virgin, and the excellent
 33 VI   |      Saints, is most excellent in glory. St. Jerome says: "Everywhere
 34 VI   |           the privilege of Mary's glory that she, after God, is
 35 VI   |           God, is most exalted in glory. The glorious privilege
 36 VI   |         glorious privilege of the glory of Mary is, that whatever
 37 VI   |         whatever is pleasanter in glory, that is Mary's, that is
 38 VI   |           after God, our greatest glory and our greatest joy is
 39 VI   |           God, it is our greatest glory, O Mary, to behold thee,
 40 VI   |         above grace, the grace of glory above the grace of the way,
 41 VI   |       merit to approximate to the glory of the eternal King." Again,
 42 VI   |     approach her."~If such is the glory of the body of Mary, what,
 43 VI   |       what, thinkest thou, is the glory of her soul ? This blessed
 44 VI   |        all Saints in the grace of glory and in the grace of rewards.
 45 VII  |           CHOIRS OF THE ANGELS IN GLORY~Ave, gratia plena. It was
 46 VII  |        the resplendence of divine glory, of the joy of eternal gladness.
 47 VII  |          of the angelic orders in glory.~First let us consider that
 48 VII  |       full of grace, she who gave glory to the heavens, God to the
 49 VII  |          fine, the whole Trinity, glory; the person of the Son,
 50 VII  |        virginity and acquired the glory of fecundity." The Lord,
 51 VII  |         third Book of Kings: "The glory of the Lord had filled the
 52 VII  |         Lord, was filled with the glory of the Divine Majesty by
 53 VII  |          expression of the divine glory, according to Ecclesiasticus: "
 54 VII  |           the Lord is full of His glory" (XXIV, 20.) Above all,
 55 VII  |          this work is full of the glory of the Lord, because this
 56 VII  |         of the Lord, because this glory shines most fully in Mary,
 57 VII  |         such scope for the divine glory as in Mary. For the Lord
 58 VII  |         the Lord has through Mary glory because of the restoration
 59 VII  |          brought about in Heaven, glory in the Redemption accomplished
 60 VII  |        accomplished in the world, glory for the deliverance wrought
 61 VII  | deliverance wrought in hell -this glory He has in the fullness of
 62 VII  |            Therefore, full of the glory of the Lord is His work,
 63 VII  |          The earth is full of His glory" (Is. VI, 3.) Full indeed
 64 VII  |        full is Mary of the divine glory, which shines in her most
 65 VII  |        but possess most fully the glory of eternal splendor." What
 66 VII  |          expression of the divine glory, according to Ecclesiasticus: "
 67 VII  |           the Lord is full of His glory" (XXIV, 20.) Above all,
 68 VII  |          this work is full of the glory of the Lord, because this
 69 VII  |         of the Lord, because this glory shines most fully in Mary,
 70 VII  |         such scope for the divine glory as in Mary. For the Lord
 71 VII  |         the Lord has through Mary glory because of the restoration
 72 VII  |          brought about in Heaven, glory in the Redemption accomplished
 73 VII  |        accomplished in the world, glory for the deliverance wrought
 74 VII  | deliverance wrought in hell -this glory He has in the fullness of
 75 VII  |            Therefore, full of the glory of the Lord is His work,
 76 VII  |          The earth is full of His glory" (Is. VI, 3.) Full indeed
 77 VII  |        full is Mary of the divine glory, which shines in her most
 78 VII  |        but possess most fully the glory of eternal splendor." What
 79 VII  |         full and overfull joy and glory in the kingdom, who had
 80 VII  |           of good fame, of divine glory, of eternal joy. Now, therefore,
 81 VIII |           all grace, all heavenly glory, all is the Lord's own.
 82 VIII |           Oh, how rich is Mary in glory, who was so rich in misery!
 83 X    |          interiorly with manifold glory, that truly it can be said
 84 X    |         be said of thee: "All the glory of the King's daughter is
 85 X    |        delights, art drawn to the glory of thy beauty, and as a
 86 X    |         the mother of the King of glory. She is the mother of Him,
 87 X    |       whose wisdom to know, whose glory to hope. Mary is, therefore,
 88 X    |  knowledge by wisdom, our hope by glory, so that she can truly say: "
 89 XI   |        the place of her throne of glory. First, in her most full
 90 XI   |   universally, so that in all the glory of all virtue she was, as
 91 XI   |      eminent in humility." By the glory of these virtues Mary was,
 92 XI   |           because of her place in glory; and according to this Job
 93 XI   |         in Heaven is the place of glory, of which the Lord said
 94 XI   |        possession of her place in glory in her most glorious Assumption.~
 95 XII  |          brightness of the divine glory, or the terrible severity
 96 XII  |        sees not corruption, whose glory will never fade."~Fourthly,
 97 XII  |          body and soul are now in glory. St. Augustine says: "I
 98 XII  |       because she is assumed into glory." Therefore we worthily
 99 XIII |       Eternal King, entering into glory.~Mary is that Queen entering
100 XIII |      grace, her entrance was into glory, her elevation was in abundance.~
101 XIII |       find Mary entering into the glory of Heaven without obstacle.
102 XIII |       Consider in these words the glory of Mary entering into the
103 XIII |     should cease to give; for thy glory is not diminished, but augmented,
104 XIII |       justified are taken up into glory." The Mother of God, therefore,
105 XIII |           therefore, entered into glory, as the Queen of Heaven,
106 XIII |           in nature, in grace, in glory; thou hast surpassed all
107 XIII |              So Mary surpassed in glory all the angelical intelligences;
108 XIII |    surpassed all by exceeding the glory of all the blessed. Behold,
109 XIII |            grant that the King of glory, Our Lord Jesus Christ,
110 XIV  |     MERCIES, THE GREATNESS OF HER GLORY~Blessed art thou among women.
111 XIV  |          because of the weight of glory which is to be accumulated
112 XIV  |           of the greatness of her glory, according to that word
113 XIV  |         Ezechiel: "Blessed is the glory of the Lord from its place."
114 XIV  |         Lord from its place." The glory of the Lord is the glorious
115 XIV  |      truly blessed because of the glory which she possesses from
116 XIV  |         therefore, because of her glory; blessed indeed because
117 XIV  |       most copious, most enduring glory. Blessed, I say, because
118 XIV  |    Blessed, I say, because of her glory most sublime in dignity;
119 XIV  |            blessed because of her glory most copious in immensity;
120 XIV  |            blessed because of her glory most enduring in stability.
121 XIV  |         is blessed because of her glory most excellent in dignity.
122 XIV  |     because of the most excellent glory of her dignity, but because

125 XIV  |        her, saying: "Thou art the glory of the triumphant Jerusalem,
126 XIV  |         triumphant Jerusalem, the glory, I say, of all the Saints;
127 XIV  |           not only because of her glory most sublime in dignity,
128 XIV  |           not only because of her glory most abundant in immensity,

132 XV   |           possess the blessing of glory, and on earth that of grace;
133 XV   |       voice, saying: Thou art the glory of Jerusalem, thou art the
134 XV   |    blessed, who both received the glory of the divine seed, and
135 XVI  |     Eucharist; thine eternally by glory. But it is of me that He
136 XVI  |          Lord in magnificence and glory, and a sublime fruit of
137 XVI  |          of the regal dignity; in glory, because of the virginal
138 XVI  |       life, preserves the life of glory. It preserves the life of
139 XVI  |         of guilt, and the life of glory from the corruption of every

141 XVI  |      those enjoying this fruit in glory are satisfied, when even
142 XVII |           so in the visitation by glory. And truly, the fruit of

145 XVIII|           of this fruit, may well glory, and utter those words which
