GOLDEN SALUTATION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN

The Blessed Virgin revealed to St. Gertrude that she rejoiced to show to those who thus saluted her the inestimable treasures of her loving compassion. And at the hour of his departure, she added, I will appear to him clothed with radiant beauty, and will pour into his soul heavenly sweetness and consolation. 

HAIL, fair Lily of the effulgent and ever-peaceful Trinity. Hail, thou radiant Rose of heavenly fragrance, of whom the King of Heaven did will to be born, and with thy milk to be fed: feed our souls with Divine infusions. Amen.

This prayer is essentially the same as the more popularly known one often found in traditional prayer books of today.
