  1. Folklore - A Prayer

    Folklore
    A Prayer,
    There are four corners to my bed,
    There are four angels round me spread.
    Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John,
    God bless this bed that I lay on.
    And if I die before I wake,
    I pray the Lord my soul to take.
    Patrick Wallace.
    (told me by my mother- Mrs. Wallace.
    Tullyleague, Glin. Co. Limerick)
