In Praise Of Saint Anne. To-day is the last day of the Novena of St. Anne. To-morrow is the Vesper’s day. Here is a Song to Saint Anne. TO SAINT ANNE. Garden of God ,whose mystic Rose On thy pure breast found her repose, Hiding within her heart of gold Balsams of mercies manifold, Destined to soothe, to heal, to bless, Earth in her dreariest hours’ distress. Garden of God, whose Lily- flower, Was thy most precious crown and dower, Fair snowy perianth of threes, Outer and inner trinities, Types of the Triune God above, And Nazareth’s Trinity of Love. Garden of God! O great St. Anne! Gladden our lifetime’s narrow span With thy pure Flower of peace and love, That in God’s Paradise above Opens her snowy blooms and grace In the full sunshine of God’s Face. ---Louise Morison.
