Celtic Smooring Prayer (Banking the Fire)

By Celtic TraditionSource: Celtic Tradition - Carmina Gadelica, Vol. I (collected by Alexander Carmichael, 1900) - Public Domain60 words

I smoor the fire this night, as the Son of Mary would smoor it. The compassing of God be upon the fire, the compassing of God on all in the dwelling. Who keeps watch this night? Who but Christ, the Son of Grace. The door of God be on the dwelling, the shelter of God be on the household. Amen.
