Luke 1:46
Douay-Rheims
And Mary said: My soul doth magnify the Lord.
Greek Expositor (anonymous)
(Athanasius.) As if she said, Marvellous things hath the Lord declared that He will accomplish in my body, but neither shall my soul be unfruitful before God. It becomes me to offer Him the fruit also of my will, for inasmuch as I am obedient to a mighty miracle, am I bound to glorify Him who performs His mighty works in me.
