- IAs I lay down my head to sleep,
I give my soul to God to keep,
There are four corners on my bed,
There are four angels overhead.
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John,
God bless the bed that I lie on.- Collector

O Jesus, dear, before I rest,
I thank thee, and I pray,
that thou wouldst take away my sins,
Committed through the day.
I believe, I hope in Thee alone,
I love Thee, with my heart,
Bless Thou my body, soul and friends.
My Lord, my God, thou art.
O Mary, Mother, Virgin art.
O Mary, Mother, Virgin dear,
Saint Joseph, guardian blest.
My Angel and my patron Saint.
Care for me while I rest. - III Prayer for a toothacheAs Peter sat on a marble stone,
Jesus came to him all alone,
Peter, Peter, why dost then ache,
My dearest Lord, it is a toothache.
Then rise up Peter and come with me.(continues on next page)
