By tradition, the [[Catholic]] laity began the practice of saying the rosary in honor of the [[Mary|Blessed Virgin]] and as an easier imitation of the monastic practice of praying the 150 Psalms.  The first historical evidence of the rosary is from [[Saint Dominic]] (A.D. 1221), who founded Order of Preachers or Dominicans.<ref>http://www.ewtn.com/expert/answers/rosary_history.htm</ref>  A disciple of [[Saint Dominic]], Alain de Roche, instituted the modern form of the rosary.  Many Popes, and particularly the Dominicans, have urged the regular recitation of the rosary, which means a crown of roses as a spiritual bouquet given to the [[Mary|Blessed Mother]].
