The Song of the blessed Virgin MARY. LUKE. I.46

My soul doth magnifie the Lord. My spirit is glad also In God my Saviour, who beheld His hand-maids state so low: For lo, hence-forth all ages shall me ever blessed name. For me the strong great things hath done and holy is his name.

Such also as him reverence, his mercy is upon: And that from generation to generation. He with his arm hath shewed strength, the proud he scattered In the devices of their heart which they imagined.

Down from their seat of dignity the mighty put hath he; And hath exalted them on high that were of low degree. The hungry he hath fill'd with good, the rich sent void away. His servant Israel he hath help'd, his mercy minding aye.

According as he spake unto our fathers heretofore: To Abraham and to his seed, henceforth for evermore.
