The Armor of God
Reflections and Prayers for Wartime

CHAPTER IX
The Blessed Mother

REGINA COELI
(Said during Eastertide, instead of the Angelus.)

Queen of heaven, rejoice, Alleluia.
For He wbom thou didst deserve to bear, Alleluia.
Hath risen as He said, Alleluia.
Pray for us to God, Alleluia.
Rejoice and be glad, O Virgin Mary!
Because Our Lord is truly risen, Alleluia.

Let us Pray
O God, who by the resurrection of Thy Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ, hast vouchsafed to make glad the whole world, grant, we beseech Thee, that, through the intercession of the Virgin Mary, His Mother, we may attain the joys of eternal life. Through the same Christ Our Lord. Amen.
