And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to me according to thy word (Lk 1:38, Douay-Rheims).
Concerning the Divine Word
With the divinest Word, the Virgin
Made pregnant, down the road
Comes walking, if you'll grant her
A room in your abode.
(St John of the Cross; translated by Roy Campbell)
