In His bound
hands they placed a reed, as a scepter, in mockery of His kingship. He
could have said, "Forget it!" and gone home to Heaven, but He
permitted Himself to be belittled by them.

Hail Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee;
Blessed are thou among
women,
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb,
Jesus crowned
with thorns.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
