“When you see the new moon you should say: ¶ I see the new moon ¶ And the new moon sees me ¶ God bless the new moon ¶ And God bless me.”
When you see the new moon you should say.
I see the new moon
And the new moon sees me
God bless the new moon
And God bless meWhatever you have in your hand when you see the new moon first; you will have plenty of that before the next new moon comes. - Collector
