    Have mercy on all sinners O Lord and grant the just the grace to persevere and advance in virtue, and may the souls of the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace. Amen.

    I lie in my bed as I lie in my grave and I pray to my God my soul to receive.
    Going to bed.
    In the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ crucified I lay my body down to rest. Bless me O Lord, defend, govern and keep me and after this short and miserable pilgrimage bring me to life everlasting happiness. Amen.
    O My God I adore Thee. I love Thee with my whole heart. I thank thee for all Thy favours and mercies. I place myself under Thy protection and beg of Thee through the merits of Jesus Christ to grant me graces to serve Thee faithfully. All the days of my life I offer to Thee
