    When a person sneezes they say God bless him.
    When a person yawns they say, In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.
    When a person dies they say God have mercy on his soul. When you give anyone anything they say. God spare you to never want. If you would do anyone an injury they would say, May the curse of Moses be on you for ever and ever.
