Rosary

"But presently another mood seized her; she turned from the table, called for her rosary [...]"[1]

"She held her rosary in one hand and had drawn a scarf over her shoulders"[2]

"What’s that?’ she cried, falling back, and the rosary dropped from her hand."[3]

A rosary is a string of beads used by Roman Catholics to count off prayers as they say them or say certain sets of prayers.[4]
