  1. (continued from previous page)
    Nor to Hell's pains will enter in. Amen!
    I lay me down this night on my right side, to a sleep as Jesus did on Mary's Knee.
    If I die before I waken, that I may be the Lord God will come to take me.
    Mary be the Branch,
    Jesus be the Flower,
    Jesus be with me,
    Now and at my dying hour. there are four corners on my bed,
    There are four angels overhead -
    Matthew, mark, Luke and John,
    God bless the bed that I lay on.
