  2. Long ago when people had no prayers printed, they made up beautiful prayers, which they taught to their children, they had a special prayer practically for every hour of the day
    Of course the rosary was the commonest of all. When going to bed they used to say

    Look on me a little child
    Pity mine and pity me
    And suffer me to come to thee.
