  1. Good night my Guardian angel dear.
    The day is sped away.
    Well spent or ill
    The story is written down for aye
    And now in God's kind providence
    Thy angel pure and bright
    Watch over me while I sleep
    My angel dear good night.

    MORNING PRAYER:
    O my God I offer thee this day
    All I may do or think or say
    Uniting all with what was done on earth
    By Jesus Christ thy Son.
    PRAYER TO STOP A WOUND WHEN BLEEDING:
    Jesus of Nazareth king of the Jews.
    Baptizing in the river Jordan
    With St John the Baptist
    Causing the water to stop or flow
    Stop and staunch the blood of this person
    In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.
