“St. John Eudes recommended this prayer for the conversion of sinners and advised his spiritual children to say it at the bedside of the sick.

The Blessed Virgin promised him that ‘all who say it with devotion, or at least good will, if they are in the state of grace, receive an increase of Divine love in their hearts at each of the salutations or benedictions contained in it; if they are in mortal sin, She will knock at the door of their hearts with Her own sweet virginal hand to urge them to open it to grace.’ And She added that when persons are deep in sin and difficult to convert, it would be well to encourage them to say this salutation, or at least to consent having it said for them.” (Admirable Heart of Mary by St. John Eudes page 329)
