What did Elizabeth and Mary, an old woman and a young one make of their experience? Interestingly, an ancient tradition originally ascribes the Magnificat, the opening lines of which derive from the Song of Hannah, (1 Samuel 2:1), to Elizabeth. Hannah, like Elizabeth was old and barren. It wouldn’t surprise me if Elizabeth understood what Mary was called to, better than Mary did. - Sr. mary Ann Strain, CP
