The Sleep of the Infant Jesus by Sassoferrato, circa 1650

Our new-born King and Saviour is eight days old today; the Star that guides the Magi is advancing over the Stable where our Jesus is being nursed by his Mother. Today the Son of Man is to be circumcised; this first sacrifice of his innocent Flesh must honour the eighth day of his mortal life. Today also a Name is to be given him: the Name will be Jesus, and it means Saviour. So that mysteries abound on this day: let us not pass one of them over, but honour them with all possible devotion and love.
