More Wisdom from St. John Henry Newman

St. Joseph was the true and worthy Spouse of Mary, supplying in a visible manner the place of Mary’s Invisible Spouse, the Holy Ghost. He was a virgin, and his virginity was the faithful mirror of the virginity of Mary. He was the Cherub, placed to guard the new terrestrial Paradise from the intrusion of every foe.

— St. John Henry Newman from his "Triduo to St. Joseph" found in the book Prayers, Verses and Devotions
