- As I looked up as I looked down
I saw the Blessed Virgin Mary
Seven Mass Books in her hand
Seven priests carrying 7 candles lighting.
Open the Gates of Heaven, and shut the Gates of Hell
Let all the Suffering Souls, enter in for Evermore Amen.
I lay my body down to sleep
To God I give my Soul to keep
To sleep now, to sleep ever
To God I give my Soul for ever.
If death comes tonight to me.
Lord Jesus waken me.
Good-night, my good Angel
You watched over me during the day
Watch over me during the night
And grant that I may be always good and wise(continues on next page)- Informant
