Summary: In this section, Kircher contiunes with his theology of the name of Mary, which shares in similar metaphysical qualities as the name of Jesus: Kircher derives both names from Hebrew and ascribes a kind of superior quality exlcusive to the names of Jesus and Mary (Maria) that reigns over all of creation. For Kircher, invoking the name of Mary--and its many variations--calls upon those supernatural qualities on behalf of the devotee, and he provides a sample hymn within which he calls Mary by many titles like "Beautiful Virgin," "Great Mother," "Great and Admirable Queen of Heaven," "Imperatrix," "Adjutant," and so on. | Summary: In this section, Kircher contiunes with his theology of the name of Mary, which shares in similar metaphysical qualities as the name of Jesus: Kircher derives both names from Hebrew and ascribes a kind of superior quality exlcusive to the names of Jesus and Mary (Maria) that reigns over all of creation.

cum dixit: Ave Maria; ab aeterno a Deo ipsi, et postea a parentibus
ipsi Divino instinctu impositum, mysterijs, et arcanis
confertum; nam si ea juxta hebraicum resolvamus
inveniemus ingentium praerogativarum appellativa; uti
illuminatrix, et Domina populi Dei, illiminatrix et
myrrha maris, speculum Dei, et quemadmodum nonulli
vocant Mithriah, id est, matrem Dei, et similia, quae ex
ejusdem nomine hebraico derivari possunt. Quemadmodum
JESUS, filius Mariae nomen adeptus est, quod est super
omne nome, ut in nomine Jesu flectatur omne genu caelestium,
terrestrium, et infernorum, ita est nomen Mariae;
unde et nomen ejus admirabile est, quin ut vel ipsa
nihil sit aestimo, quam a suis dilectis --- Virgo et mater,
uti ex revelatione Magno cuidam servo revelata fuisse
narrat Bari; Junget autem in orationibus ad eam fusis,
nihil ita gratum habere, quam ut orationibus, et --
hymnis ei dicendis inseratur nomen MARIA ut devotus
recitans eas sine distractione semper videat relucere
eius sacratissimum nomen vel in principio, vel in medio,
vel in fine hymnorum, et Elogrorum, quibus celebratur.
Sed haec exemplis monstremus.
