- Old Prayers'God bless the work' is a saying people often use when passing in a field of workers. In return for charity people said 'May God increase your store'. Visitors to a house always said 'God save all here'.When going to bed this prayer was recited:-There are four corners to my bed. There are four angels at my head.
Saints Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
God bless this bed that I lay on
If I die before I wake
To God I give my soul to take
If I wake before I die
To God I give my soul to keep
Heart of Jesus! I adore Thee
Heart of Mary! I implore Thee
Heart of Joseph pure and just
In these three hearts I place my trustMr. M.Beecher, Main St., Tallow, Co. Waterford.Katherine Beecher, Main St., Tallow, Co. Waterford.- Collector
