Hail, Mary!
A Latin pun for Lady Day from the ancient hymn Ave Maris Stella Sumens illud AVE Gabrielis ore, funda nos in pace mutans EVAe nomen.
Taking up that AVE from the mouth of Gabriel, give us solid peace by EVA's name reversal.
The pun and the succinct trochaic trimeter rhythmically render the ‘divine economy’. For the theology, see Anthony Freeman’s Eden Project, pages 5–10.
