    With pitiful tears and by pitiful sighs.
    Whoever says this prayer three
    times a day, or three times a
    night, the souls in Purgatory
    shall never trouble them.
    Here on my bed I lay down to sleep
    I give my soul to God to keep.
    If any wil crosses me,
    Oh, Blessed Virgin waken me.
    Sweet Lord, by the branch
    Sweet Lady, by the flower.
    Then, come to me Jesus at my dying hour.
    Jesus, Mary and Joseph,
    I give you my heart and my soul
    Jesus, Mary and Joseph, assist me
    now and at my last agony.
