I am a woman and a prophet, I’m now eighty-four,
I’ve been a widow for years, but was married before.
I live in the Temple, I stay here each day.
I worship our God. I fast and I pray.
When the Holy Family arrived, I spoke the Good News:
Everyone praise God! Here comes salvation for the Jews!
Who am I?

Anna!
