    Grant me, O Lord the grace to perceive
    the vanity and good works of this
    day. May I soar into the bosom of
    Thy Divine Majesty
    Amen
    (To be said on a journey)
    O most sweet Jesus guide me on my
    journey, till I start on my way;
    guide me home, on my journey again,
    till at last another day is ended
    and shadows retire
    Amen.
    (Going to bed)
    Grant O God that a happy death may be the end and the crown of a well spent life
