Let me turn from the empty tomb, and try to realise the other side of the picture--Mary in Heaven. This Fourth Glorious Mystery was foretold more than once in Holy Scripture: "Arise, O Lord, into Thy resting-place; Thou, and the Ark which Thou hast sanctified." (Ps. cxxxi. 8.) What is this ark sanctified by GOD but Mary's body, of which the Son of GOD took flesh? "The Queen stood on Thy Right Hand in gilded clothing surrounded with variety." Who is this but the Queen of Heaven clothed with her glorious body of immortality? "A Throne was set for the King's Mother, and she sat on His Right Hand," (3 Kings ii. 19), in all the dazzling beauty of her glorified body, surrounded by adoring Saints and Angels. Her Son on His Throne is saying to her: Ask, My Mother, for I will not say thee nay. The beauty of the scene is so entrancing, the light is so dazzling, the music is so enchanting, the mystery is so wonderful, that I feel almost bewildered and want to shut my eyes and think what it all means. It means this--that I have a Mother in Heaven, and that when her Son bends towards her from His Throne, and when all the hosts of Heaven hold their breath to catch what their Queen is saying, they hear her ask some little favour for me, her child on earth. Why? Because I am saying: "Holy Mary, Mother of GOD, pray for me now." Let me, with the eye of faith and love, penetrate the thin veil, which hides these wondrous mysteries from my sight. Let me try to see things as they really are, and then my prayers will be less formal. _Colloquy_ with Mary on the Right Hand of JESUS in Heaven. _Resolution._ To think of her there when I say my Rosary to-day. _Spiritual Bouquet._ "Holy Mary, Mother of GOD, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death." "Who is She?" (The Fourth Glorious Mystery) "_Quæ est ista quæ progreditur quasi aurora consurgens, pulchra ut luna, electa ut sol, terribilis ut castrorum acies ordinata?_" "_Who is she that cometh forth as the morning rising, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army set in array?_" (Cant. vi. 9.) _1st Prelude._ The Angels asking three times: "Who is she?" (Cant. iii. 6; vi. 9; viii. 5.) _2nd Prelude._ Grace to understand who she is. _Point I._--"WHO IS SHE?"
