Flower Meaning
‘And [Jesus] went down with them and came to Nazareth and was obedient to them; and his Mother kept all these things in her heart.’ (Luke 2:51) Thus did Jesus make Himself our example in the virtue of obedience, that virtue which, like a brilliant carnation, should find a place in the garland which adorns your youthful brow, and diffuse sweet fragrance all around.
– Rev. Frances Lasance, The Catholic Girl’s Guide
