Robert Herrick - The Old Wives` Prayer
Work rating: Low

Holy-Rood, come forth and shield
Us i` th` city and the field;
Safely guard us, now and aye,
From the blast that burns by day;
And those sounds that us affright
In the dead of dampish night;
Drive all hurtful fiends us fro,
By the time the cocks first crow.
