Medieval Mary ​Garden Name

Virtue

Latin Botanical name

To him who happiness here seeks,
O Christian soul,
the Myrtle speaks
It tells of holy mystic vows

By which the spirit may espouse
The gentle Mary,
purest dove,
And this forever gain her love

A medal with her image fair,
Let each upon his bosom wear;
Then will she here her love extend,
That we may reach a blissful end.
