(continued from previous page)

fire people say "God save me from the fire of Purgatory".
This prayer is said on going to bed,
5. "Infant Jesus, meek and mild,
Look on me a little child,
Come to me and with me stay,
Never let me from you stray".
6. When going to bed I sprinkle myself with Holy water and say, "By the sprinkling of thy Precious Blood, O Lord Jesus Christ, and by the merits of Thy Passion, Wash me from every stain, cleanse me from every sin, In the name of the Father and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen
