In Chicago, Purina Sansfoy sees what she thinks is a rosary made of bowling balls [St. Fidgeta & Other Parodies, 43].
The Human Rosary is the most important part of the May Procession [St. Fidgeta & Other Parodies, 113].
Catholic devotion that refers both to the beads used as counters in the devotion and the devotion itself. The traditional Catholic rosary is a series of meditations on events (mysteries) in the lives of Jesus and Mary as prayers are said: the Lord's Prayer (or Our Father), the Hail Mary (Ave Maria), and the Glory Be to the Father (Gloria Patri).
Bowen believes the human phenomenon is something called a living rosary but this instance does not correspond to anything real: "John is just having fun."
