HAIL thou star of the ocean! Portal of the sky! Ever Virgin Mother Of the LORD most high! Oh! by Gabriel’s Ave, Utter d long ago, Eva’s name reversing, Stablish peace below. Break the captive’s fetters; Light on blindness pour; All our ills expelling, Every bliss implore. Show thyself a Mother Offer Him our sighs, Who for us incarnate Did not thee despise. Virgin of all virgins! To thy shelter take us: Gentlest of the gentle! Chaste and gentle make us Still as on we journey, Help our weak endeavour; Till with thee and JESUS We rejoice for ever. Through the highest heaven, To the Almighty Three, FATHER, SON, and SPIRIT, One same glory be. Amen.
