Within this book are a multitude of precious insights on the Blessed Virgin Mary as perfect exemplar of the Christian virtues. These 13 sermons, preached by that great yet gently Doctor of the Church, St. Francis de Sales, between 1602 and 1622, were remembered and carefully written down by the Visitation Nuns to whom he spoke. The many beautiful Catholic insights in these sermons give a new and fresh perspective on the Christian virtues, leading the soul to a renewed resolution to follow Our Lady’s example in the pursuit of that holiness which binds the Christian ever close to Our Lord Jesus Christ. St. Francis de Sales moves easily over both New and Old Testaments, especially the Song of Songs, showing how Our Lady’s life is rich in the “perfumes” of humility, obedience, and charity—as well as in many great and special privileges given to her by God! St. Francis de Sales shows clearly that Mary, by her holy example of the virtues, is the great Mistress of teacher for every Christian.
