- Here as on this bed I lie,
I pray to God to be my guide;
There are four corners on my bed
Four Guardian Angels over head
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John
Bless this bed I lie upon.
If any evil crosses me,
Holy Mary waken me,
If I die before I wake I pray to God my soul to take.
(to be said when you lie down in bed).
A prayer for a toothache
As Saint Peter knelt on a marble stone,
Sweet Jesus came up to him alone,
What ails thou Peter said Our Lord?
Oh Dear Jesus a Great toothache
Then rise up Peter thou shall be healed.
(Who ever says this prayer three times night and day shall never have a toothache)
Short prayer to the Holy Family
Heart of Jesus I adore thee
Heart of Mary I emplore thee(continues on next page)- Collector
