From
The Anchoress comes this lovely picture/icon and poem about the comparison between Eve, mother to our sin, and Mary, mother to our Savior. Enjoy!
O Eve!My mother, my daughter, life-giving Eve,
Do not be ashamed, do not grieve.
The former things have passed away,
Our God has brought us to a New Day.
See, I am with Child,
Through whom all will be reconciled.
O Eve! My sister, my friend,
We will rejoice together
Forever
Life without end.
