  1. (continued from previous page)
    And open the gates of Heaven
    And shut the gates of [?]
    And let these poor souls into Heaven
    That pray three times by day
    Three times by night
    And the gates of Hell shall not prevail against them.

  2. God bless Friday and Good Friday too,
    And the Friday oun Lord was crucified too,
    And the Jews they came with spears so sharp,
    And pierced Our Lord from hand to heart,
    And His Blessed Mother was standing by,
    With a heavy heart and a dismal sigh.
    All those that say this little prayer,
    Three times by night and three times by day,
    They never shall fall into mortal sin,
    And the gates of Hell they never shall enter in
