- O my god, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee because thou art the chief good and worthy of all good, love and tverthing that is sinful and displeasing to Thee. I resolve to amend my life here after.

- There are four corners on my bed.
Four Blessed Angels round me spread.
Saint Mathew, Mark, Luke and John, God bless the bed that I lie on.
I go to my bed as I go to my grave.
Begging of Jesus my soul for to leave.
The bright Queen of Heaven and Christ be my flower and Jesus be with me at my dying hour.
Long ago when a person lifted the latch he would say "God save all here", when going away they say "May you have an easy death, and a grand finish".
