Quid faciendum, ut quis verus et sincerus
Devotus Deiparae cultus, in tribus potissimum punctis
consistit; Primus interiorem animi cultum concernit;
Alter exteriora devota Magnae Matris obsequia exhibenda
respicit; Tertius in propagatione gloriae et honoris
eius versatur. Ad prius quod attinet, est ille cultus interior
nil aliud, quam virtutum in Deipara eminentium
imitatio, qua nihil Benedictae Matri gratius, acceptiusque
esse potest, uti ex Marianae historiae exemplis sat patet.
Imitatio vero haec in tribus potissimum virtutibus consistit;
et sunt: Puritas animi et corporis perfectissima. Secundo
profundissima humilitas. Tertio Charitas seu Amor Dei
et proximi erga omnes profusissimas; qua quomodo in
suprabenedicta Beatissimae Virginis anima effulserint,
quomodo eam, quoad animae nostrae imbecillitas permiserit,
imitari queamus, exponam.
Puritas Beatae Virginis.
Gloriosissima Dei Mater, uti post filium super omnes filios hominum, et Angelos, maioribus charismatum praerogativis
ditata fuit, ita quoque omnium Sanctorum
mortali adhuc vita fruentium puritatem longe excessit,
utpote quae sine peccato originali concepta, ab omni peccati
labe divinitus conservata fuit, tantae sublimitatis
excessu, ut nulla purarum creaturarum parem obtinuerit,
nec absque ratione: cum enim electa esset, ad infinitam
Matris Dei dignitatem, aequum, congruumque fuit, ut coelestis
sponsi thalamus ea puritatis immensitate ornaretur, quae
Summary: The section preceding the first paragraph consists of two sets of three. In the first, Kircher lists the three cheif points or concerns of Marian devotion--the interior spirit, external compliance, and the propagation of glory and dignity. The second list, undoubtably dependent on the first, concerns the imitation of the Blessed Mother through the cultivation of three chief virtues: extreme purity of body and mind, profound humility, and an excessive outpouring of charity and Love of God.
The first paragraph itself is mostly descriptive of the Blessed Virgin, describing her relation to Christ and to the rest of creation, her Immaculate conception, and the ramifications of becoming the Mother of God.
