The Rosary, even when prayed with its most rudimentary and fundamental prayers, establishes within the soul a good, thorough, and consistent regimen of devotion. Yet more than this, even in its most basic form, it stands as the penultimate weapon of creation: most effective in slaying the efforts, meddlings, and interferences of the wicked, chiefly those innumerable principalities that labor ad aeternum for the ruin of human souls. The Ultimate weapon, of course, is the Holy Queen herself, and by her intercession flows the wondrous and powerful bestowal of this sacramental of divine grace and mercy.
