On Mary, the New Eve:

“Because of one man, all his descendants perished; And all are saved because of one man. Because of one woman, the deadly door opened; And life returned, because of one woman.” -Elegia 5-8

“We are the blind offspring of the children of pitiful Eve, bringing with us the shadows born of an age-old error. But when God deigned to assume the mortal form of a human nature, then came forth from the Virgin a world of salvation.” –Carmen Paschale 4:265-269

“As the tender rose springs up among prickly thorns but does not offend in any way, since its beauty obscures its thorny branches. So holy Mary, the new virgin descending from the branch of Eve, Makes pure the old virgin’s offense. Just so the old nature languished, corrupted under the sentence of death. Once Christ was born, man could be born anew and cast off his old nature’s stain.” –Carmen Paschale 2:28-34

On Mary, Mother of God:

“After the ancient prophets told what was to come about, the angel revealed to untouched Mary that it was very near. Faith received the message, and suddenly a heavenly burden filled the maiden’s womb: the world’s Maker made himself obey the laws of birth. The unmarried Virgin looks with wonder at her swollen belly and rejoices: she is to bear her own Creator.?” –Carmen Paschale 2:35-40

On the Gebirah (Queen Mother):

“Hail, O holy mother; you gave birth to the King who governs heaven and earth forever, whose Divinity and dominion embrace everything in one eternal realm and endure without end. In your blessed womb, you hold a mother’s joy, yet you enjoy the honor of virginity. No woman like you was seen before, nor did one appear after; you alone, without comparison, were the woman who pleased Christ.” –Carmen Paschale 2: 63-69

On Mary’s Perpetual Virginity:

“The synagogue withdrew, eclipsed by his face. Christ unites himself to the Church in fairest love. This illuminates the conspicuous greatness of Mary, who, while always conserving the glorious name of Mother, remains a Virgin ever. The Lord showed himself to her eyes first, when he revealed himself openly in the light, so that the good Mother, who was once the way of his arrival, by spreading the news of the great miracles, became the sign of his return as well.” – Carmen Paschale 5: 357-364
