  1. Oh mother are you sleeping?
    No Son, but I am dreaming.
    What are you dreaming of?
    I am dreaming that you are tearing, wearing, wailing, nailed to a cross, and a crown of thorns on your head.
    That is a very good dream mother and whoever says it three times going to bed shall never see the gates of hell, but are sure that the gates of heaven shall be open to him.
