| | St. Louis Marie de Montfort on the End Times |
 | | Montfort coins the phrase: “in time and in eternity” (LEW 2, 225; FC (Letter to the Friends of the Cross) 21; TD 265; H (Hymns) 20:18; 77:20), which he applies to the glorification of God, to the possession of Wisdom, and to the gift of oneself to Christ through the hands of Mary. |
 | | Montfort affirms this by applying to Mary the symbolism of the mountain: those who live in her grow in holiness and learn of contemplation and intercession. |
 | | Montfort expresses the spirituality of these missionaries using meteorological symbols (rain, snow: PM 20, 25), cosmic symbols (fire, sun: PM 12), and animals (dogs, lambs, doves, eagles, bees, deer, lions: PM 13), especially those of the four evangelists (man, lion, ox, eagle: PM 21). |
