  1. Charm against the Toothache

    Share Share Post
    As Peter sat on a tomb stone
    Up come Jesus and he alone
    Oh, Peter, Peter why do you ache
    Oh my Lord and Saviour it is the toothache
    Rise up Peter and he healed
    And anyone that says this prayer
    Three times by night three times by day
    Shall never suffer from the pains of the toothache
