    Holy St Anthony
    Blessed St Ann
    Send me a man
    as soon as you can

    Prayer going to bed
    As I lay down on my right side
    I pray to God to be my guide
    If I die before I wake
    To God I give my soul to keep
    There is four corners and four Angels all around me spread
    St Matew, Mark, Luke and John
    God bless this bed that I lay on
    Amen Jesus if any evils come to me
    I pray to the Blessed Virgin Mary
    To come and waken me
