To Protect a Sleeping Mind

Sleep is the time of dreams and visits. The following incantation repeated aloud at one's bedtime will aid in the discouraging of unwanted visitors in the dreaming mind.

Before retiring for the night, repeat the following incantation aloud:

Spirits of the night, I beseech thee,
Find favor with mine call and plea:
Draw close and circle round
Mine mind I clear and lend to sleep
That sleep will use to rest the weary world
Let not the world and those unfavorable things within it
Visit upon mine mind unheralded
Uninvited visitors be sent away
Turned back
Turned back to the dark depths
Turned back to the sender whose name is never spoken
That thus he may gain strength
Gain strength and threaten those unable
Unable or unknowing
Unknowing or innocent
Innocents in the world
Sleeping as I sleep
Spirits of the night, I beseech thee,
Find favor with mine call and plea
Find favor and protect mine mind
Find favor and protect the innocents.

This is best repeated nightly so as to protect one's mind and allow peaceful sleep and promote quiet dreams.
