become their consolation through this consecrated Bread, the gift of the Queen of Sorrows.”

"At the cross her station keeping,
Stood the mournful mother weeping,
Close to Jesus to the last.
Through her heart, His sorrow sharing,
All His bitter anguish bearing,
Now at length the sword has passed."
(Stabat Mater)
