NOTE
In this booklet, the first three Glorious Mysteries of the Most Holy Rosary, as related by the
Evangelists, have been harmonized and compiled into a single continuous narrative in the familiar
words of the Douay­ Rheims Bible.

The meditations on the last two Glorious Mysteries are drawn from the discourses of St. Alphonsus
de Liguori on Our Lady's Assumption and Coronation.

We have done our best to follow the most likely sequence of events, to the extent that it can be
surmised from the context of Sacred Scripture.

Any phrases not found in the biblical texts appear within brackets
(i.e. { ]). Potentially misunderstood expressions are explained in textual notes by Bishop Richard
Challoner from his 1764 A.D . edition of the Douay-Rheims Bible.
