Prayers

(Translated by Bishop Liam Cary)
St. Michael, Archangel,
     defend us in battle.
From the wickedness and snares of the devil
     protect us.
May God restrain him,
     we humbly pray.
And do Thou,
     O Prince of the heavenly host,
by the power of God,
cast into hell Satan
and all the evil spirits
who prowl about the world
seeking the ruin of souls.
