On us be Brigit's prayers ", that she may help us against danger! 15

May she help us with a fiery sword for the battle against dark flocks !
92 may her holy prayers protect us into Heaven's Kingdom past pains.
Before going with the angels to the battle let us come to the Church 20
speedily :
commemoration of God is better than any poem. Victorious Brigit
loved not the world.
