How wondrous your mien Midst flowers and roses And Olive trees green. Ay Jesus de mi alma Que bien pareces Entre Flores y Rosas Y Olivas Verdes Title: Re: St. Rosa of Lima Post by: Shin on March 29, 2010, 04:36:43 PM How truly beautiful. :)

This was an extremely rare practice in that period.

Obviously her father and mother mighty have assumed that their daughter would eventually marry.
