[Hermann the Cherusker]

Catholics also have lots of other prayers like the Jesus Prayer said on beads. These are all Rosarys of a sort.

I was rather surprised to discover this Orthodox form of THE Rosary, as everyone understands the term (10 Hail Mary's with a meditation on a mystery), along with the claim that the Orthodox first received it. The 150 Aves are unknown in the West until the 11th or 12th century by most histories (Lady Godiva had one of the first Rosaries made).

The Orthodox version is slightly different and I've never heard it called the "Hail Mary" by an Orthodox.

"O Hail Mother of God and Virgin, Mary full of Grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, for thou has given birth to the Savior of our souls."
