    Local prayers.
    O'. then to Jesus you my mother turn,
    By the most tender names comfort those souls,
    The poor holy souls that burn in unquenchable flames.
    As I lie down in my right hand side,
    I pray to God to be my guide.
    There are four corners on my bed.
    There are four angel over spread.
    Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John,
    I hope they bless the bed that I lay on.
    O'. good angel do me defend
    and bring me to a happy end.
