    A Collection of Prayers
    On gong to bed
    Blessed Virgin: pity me
    From the shades of darkness set me free.
    On gong to bed
    Dear St. Joseph! spouse of Mary.
    Blessed of all the Saints on high.
    When the death shaded round me falling
    Teach, O teach me how to die.
    Going on a journey
    Through by gone years He's helped me,
    To-day I'll praise his Name,
    And trust Him for the future,
    To help me just the same.
