Looking for information on the Maria Desolata service

greenspun.com : LUSENET : Catholic : One Thread

Hello, I'm doing a talk March 20th for my Society of Mary (Anglican) ward on the "Maria Desolata" I've been able to find the actual prayer, but cannot find any additional information (such as oh say a history, or anything, at least not in English). Even the great advent.org does not have an article on it!! About the only thing it can say is that the Maria Desolata is not properly liturgical. So, any help that y'all can render me would be greatly, greatly appreciated.

The Maria Desolata was my introduction to the liturgical life of the Shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham, so it holds a special place in my heart.

P.S. Of course if anyone has information on the "Maria Consolata" as well that would also be appreciated!
