That is very true. But she praised Mary nonetheless. That is exactly what a prayer to Mary is: it is seeking the company of Mary because Jesus is with her, and asking for her prayers to Jesus.

Hail Mary, full of grace
The Lord is with thee
Blessed art thou among women
And blessed is the Fruit of thy womb, Jesus
Holy Mary, mother of God, pray for us sinners now and in the hour of our death
As you see, Jesus in in the center of the prayer.

So beautifully put! And on that lovely note, I shall now seek the company of both, as well! Thanks, and God bless you all!

Jesus is in the center of the Hail Mary prayer? I thought Roman Catholics did not pray to Mary.
