sketch will know it.

Countless stories and legends of mission times are told and written
without the least foundation for veracity, for example the story of "The
Lost Pearls of Loretto;" others are founded on facts but distorted
beyond recognition. Still this is not startling in a land as full of
sentiment and romance as California, where so many writers, (most of
them "New-comers") have given vent to their poetical imaginations, and
it is not hard to believe that the eventful history of the state
contained many authentic stories, and legends with some ground of truth.



Hymn to the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary[6].



"Para dar vida mortal
A Un Dios Autor de la vida
Sois Maria concebida
Sin pecado original."

"Para humillar la serpiente
Que con su mortal veneno
Dejo todo el mundo lleno
De su aliento pestilente
Que marco a todo viviente
Con el sello mas fatal
Sois Maria concebida
Sin pecado original."
