Antique Rosary of the Seven Sorrows of Mary This devotion was originated in the thirteenth century. It recalls the Sorrows of the Virgin Mother of God endured in compassion for the suffering and death of her Divine Son. The Seven Sorrows Rosary consists of seven Hail Marys for each of the seven Sorrows. One Our Father is said before each group of seven Hail Marys which are separated by a medal. On the three beads of the rosary at the end, three Hail Marys are said in remembrance of the tears Mary shed because of the suffering of her Divine Son. This Rosary of the Seven Sorrows of Mary extends to 17" long when laid flat. It weighs 13.5 grams . It consists of black wood beads and 8 medals which we believe are made of brass. Each wood bead measures 5 mm. long. One medal is bigger than the other seven. The medals are marked in Latin and there is an image of Our Sorrowful Mother on the obverse of all the medals and on the reverse are scenes of her Seven Sorrows: 1. The Prophecy of Holy Simeon 2. The Flight into Egypt 3. The Loss of the Child Jesus in the Temple 4. Mary meeting Jesus as He carried His Cross 5. The Crucifixion 6. Mary receiving the Body of Jesus from the Cross 7.
