  1. A Colection of Prayers
    1. A prayer is said when retiring to rest.
    As I lie on my right side, I pray to God to be my guide.
    Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
    God bless this bed that I lie on.
    There are four corners on this bed
    There are four angels spread.
    And if I die before I wake
    I pray to God my soul to take
    And if any evil comes to me
    I pray to God to wake up me
    Jesus the Branch Mary the Flower
    Jesus, Mary and Joseph
    Go with me at my dying hour.
