Albrecht Dürer, The Virgin with a Starry Crown, 1508. Cleveland Museum of Art.
O MOTHER of God, and my most dear Mother, by the Heart of Jesus, I beg of thee each time I shall say, “O Mother of God, remember me,” to adore then for me the Heart of thy Divine Son, and to offer my unworthy heart to him, asking pardon for all that is amiss in it—telling that God of love, how much it desires perfectly to love him; and obtain by thy powerful intercession, a love that may consume in it all earthly affections, and that he may replenish it to the full extent of its small capacity. This, dear Mother, I beg, through the Heart of Jesus, to which thou canst refuse nothing, and by which I know thou canst not be rejected. Oh, show thyself then my Mother, and comply with the desires of thy poor unworthy child.
