    Prayer against fever, ague & any falling sickness
    When Jesus saw the tree, He was going to be crucified on, His bones all trembled and shook. The Jews asked Him had He ever fever, ague, or any other falling sickness. He said He had never fever, ague or any other falling sickness. Whoever says these words and keeps them in memory shall never be troubled with fever, ague or any other falling sickness.
    Prayer to the saint whose name you bear
    Holy Saint whose name I bear,
    To heaven refer my humble prayer,
    Holy St (N-) pray for me,
    That the joys of heaven I may see.
    Prayer said going on a journey
    Show me Oh Lord! the way, teach me the paths, direct my steps according to, that no injustice may rule over me. Make perfect my walking that my steps may not be moved.
