Night Prayer

Let no thought come to my heart,
Let no sound come to mine ear,
Let no temptation come to mine eye,
Let no fragrance come to my nose...

Let no fancy come to my mind,
Let no ruffle come to my spirit,
That is hurtful to my body this night,
Nor ill for my soul at the hour of my death.

(The Celtic Way of Prayer, 158)
