    "Old Prayers"
    "There are four corners to my bed. There are four angels round head. One to sing, one to pray and two to carry my soul away. O Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. God bless the bed that I lie on."
    My name is Kathleen Good, Killowen, Nohoval, Kinsale.
    My mother told me this Prayer.

    "Oh Jesus Dear Jesus have mercy on me
    My heart and my soul I will raise unto thee
    To the five Bleeding Wounds that was nailed to a tree
    Oh Crucified Jesus have mercy on me."
    The old people used to say this prayer when they would have any trouble or misfortune on them.
    My name is Kathleen Kiely, Rennies, Nohoval.
