Ave cujus nativitas, Nostra fuit solemnitas, Ut Lucifer lux oriens, Verum solem praeveniens. 3.

Ave pia humilitas, Sine viro foecunditas, Cujus annuntiatio Nostra fuit salvatio. 4.

Ave vera virginitas, Immaculata castitas, Cujus purificatio Nostra fuit purgatio. 5. Hail true virginity, immaculate chastity, whose purification has been our cleansing. 6. Ave praeclara omnibus Angelicis virtutibus, Cujus fuit assumptio, Nostra glorificatio. 6. Hail thou most glorious among all angelic virtues, she whose assumption has been our glorification. 7. O Mater Dei, Memento Mei. Amen. 7. O Mother of God, remember me. Amen.
To elaborate on the Magisterium of the Catholic Church is our mission on Plinthos (Gk. "brick"); and to do so anonymously, so that, like any brick in the wall, we might do our little part in the strength of the structure of humanity almost unnoticed.
