2) I look forward to reading your question, as I also found that a very interesting data point. Speaking of intentions, I'm currently reading a short little book by "Brother A.D.A." recommended by [personal profile] open_space way back when I started this undertaking called How to Pray the Rosary and Get Results, which gives a lot of practical advice on imbuing Rosary praying with specific, material intentions, which sounds like it should be quite interesting for potential applicability with these prayers.

Also, yes, agreed. I really like the "Rose Tree" imagery that has grown up around the Rosary, but it's so very Catholic. Winifred Hodge Rose suggested calling the set of prayers the "Tally of the Bedes," which is growing on me quite a bit, but that still leaves a name for the physical beads themselves - maybe something like "tally-beads."

3b) Sounds good, and I look forward to hearing about it!
