Excerpt from the book A Crown of Tribulation: Being Meditations on the Seven Sorrows of Our Blessed Lady Mary - We complete our contemplation of Mary’s Seven Sorrows today with the Seventh Sorrow: The Body of Jesus Laid in the Tomb. And as we contemplate our Lady’s final sorrow let us also contemplate how we have added to Mary’s sorrow by our many sins, those same sins that caused the death of our Lord, at whose feet she suffered with her Son who died upon the cross.
