SERAPHIC
12c GAUDES
The Franciscan Crown has
variously been called the Franciscan Rosary, the Seraphic Rosary or the
Rosary of the Seven Joys of Our Lady. The "Seven Joys" is a devotion that
recalls seven joyful episodes in the life of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The
practice originated among the Franciscans in early 15th-century Italy.
The themes resemble the 12th-century Gaudes, Latin praises that ask Mary
to rejoice because God has favored her in various ways.

THE
FRANCISCAN CROWN
The Franciscan Crown dates
back to the year 1422. Wadding tells us that a young novice who had that
year been received into the Franciscan Order had, previous to his reception,
been accustomed to adorn a statue of the Blessed Virgin with a wreath of
fresh and beautiful flowers as a mark of his piety and devotion. Not being
able to continue this practice in the novitiate, he decided to return to
the world. The Blessed Virgin appeared to him and prevented him from carrying
out his purpose. She then instructed him how, by reciting daily a rosary
of seven decades in honour of her seven joys, he might weave a crown that
would be more pleasing to her than the material wreath of flowers he had
been wont to place on her statue. From that time the practice of reciting
the crown of the seven joys became general in the order. (New Advent
- Catholic Encyclopedia)

~ TRADITIONAL PRAYER ~
STANDARD PRAYER
The Apostles' Creed, the Our Father, and
three Hail Marys having been said as usual, the mystery to be meditated
upon is introduced after the word Jesus of the first Hail Mary of each
decade, thus: "Jesus, whom thou didst joyfully conceive", "Jesus, whom
thou didst joyfully carry to Elizabeth", and so on for the remaining five
decades, which are given in most manuals of Franciscan devotion. At the
end of the seventh decade two Hail Marys are added to complete the number
of years (72) that the Blessed Virgin is said to have lived on earth.

of the Franciscan Crown, and applicable to the dead, may be gained as often
