The lily-of-the-valley is sometimes known as ‘Our Lady’s tears’ or ‘Mary’s tears,’ in reference to stories concerning the Virgin’s tears at the crucifixion of her Jesus, which miraculously produced the flower as they fell upon the earth at the foot of the cross.
The Regina Caeli
Queen of heaven, rejoice, alleluia! for he whom you were worthy to bear, alleluia! has risen as he said, alleluia! Pray for us to God, alleluia!
Let us pray; O God, who through the resurrection of your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, did vouchsafe to give joy to the world; grant, we beseech you, that through his Mother, the Virgin Mary, we may obtain the joys of everlasting life. Through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.
