He also wrote an extremely fulsome prayer to Mary

LOL. If so, on that we would agree.

(Hint: look up the meaning of "fulsome." You're not alone. Most people get it wrong. In this case, however, you're probably closer to the truth.)

fulsome on dictionary.com has a 3rd definition of: "3. excessively or insincerely lavish: fulsome admiration."

I knew exactly what the word meant when I wrote it; there's no need for you to condescend.
