27 Dec 99 - 02:41 PM (#154568) Subject: RE: Mbo's Quote O' The Day--Dec 27th From: McGrath of Harlow The Archbishop with the dodgy dating was called James. And I can't see him having much to do with making the Sign of the Cross, since he was a Protestant Archbishop of Armagh (died in Surrey, England in 1656).
That's a good blessing anyway Mbo. Here is another:
May thy holy angels, O Christ, son of living God,
Let them reveal true visions to us in our sleep,
May no demons, no ill, no calamity or terrifying dreams
May our watch be holy, our work, our task,
