ANDREA DEL SARTO
Assumption of the Virgin
1530
"O Mary, anyone who looks at you is comforted in any anxiety or tribulation or pain, and is victorious over every temptation. Anyone who does not know something about God, let him have recourse to you, O Mary. Anyone who does not find mercy in God, let him have recourse to you, O Mary. Anyone whose will is not in conformity, let him have recourse to you, O Mary. Anyone who falters on account of weakness, let him have recourse to you, who are all strong and powerful. Anyone in constant struggle, let him have recourse to you who are a tranquil sea…Whoever is tempted… let him have recourse to you, who are the mother of humility, and nothing drives away the devil more than humility. Let them one and all, let him have recourse to you, O Mary." – St. Mary Magdalen de Pazzi, Feast Day May 25
