Angelic Prayer

This is a ninth century Irish prayer to the archangels which includes several lesser known Archangel names.

May Gabriel be with me on Sundays, and the power  of the King of Heaven     May Gabriel be with me always that evil may not come to me, nor injury.   Michael on Monday I speak of, my mind is set on him, not with anyone do I compare him but with Jesus, Mary’s son.   If it be Tuesday, Raphael I mention, until the end comes, for my help.   One of the seven whom I beseech, as long as I  am on the field of the world.   May Uriel be with me on Wednesdays, the abbot with high nobility,   Against wound and against danger, against the sea of rough wind.     Sariel on Thursday I speak of, against the swift waves of the sea,   Against every evil that comes to a man, against every disease that seizes him.   On the day of the second fast, Rumiel – a clear blessing – I have loved, I say only the truth, good the friend I have taken.   May Panchel be with me on Saturdays, as long as I am in the yellow-coloured world,   May sweet Mary, together with her friend, deliver me from strangers.   May the Trinity protect me! May the Trinity defend me!   May the Trinity save me from every hurt, from every danger.
