Thy face, Lord, will I seek my soul followeth hard after Thee help me, desolate woman.

Mary:

Hearken, O daughter:

When thou art in tribulation, if thou turn to the Lord thy God, and shall be obedient unto His voice, He will not forsake thee.

Hearken, O daughter

Come thou, for there is peace to thee.

She stood at His feet weeping, and began to wash His feet with tears, and did wipe them with the hairs of her head.

This man, if he were a prophet, would have known who and what manner of woman this is that toucheth him: for she is a sinner.

And kissed His feet, and anointed them with the ointment.

Mary Magdalene:

Hide not Thy face far from me put not Thy servant away in anger.

Thy sins are forgiven thy faith hath saved thee go in peace.
