The quote under the inscription for Mary is from Psalms 40.2 and is often used as an allegory for Christian salvation. It may possibly indicate that Mary was what is now referred to as a "born again" Christian but this inscription is quite commonly used and no conclusions should be drawn about its significance without further supporting evidence.
