O Turris Davidicca Ora pro Nobis



For the past few weeks, I've been so much fascinated by the poetic title of Mary in the Litany of Loreto viz. "Turris Davidica".The beautiful Baroque engravings by the renowned Augsburg artist , Josef Sebastian Klauber,  that  I found in the website (http://campus.udayton.edu/mary//prayers/litanylor.html) has added further inspiration to my fascination. And today, I found to my surprise that in fact there is a private Revelation by Our Lady in a remote village in Netherlands to a frail woman named Elizabeth, and Mary appeared to her by the name "Turris Davidica" and there is even a painting of Mary as Turris Davidica, painted as per the direction of Mary herself!!! Strange .... !O Turris Davidica ora pro nobis...
