    over my head. St. Mathew, St. Mark, St. Luke and St. John, God bless the bed that I lie on. Mary my flower, Jesus my soul, if any evil spirit comes to me, Jesus, Mary awaken me. Three mass books in her hand, three candles light three bells ringing. Open the gates of heaven, shut the gates of hell and let my poor soul in for charity.
