” ST MICHAEL the Archangel, defend us in battle.
Be our defense against the wickedness and snares
of the Devil.
May GOD rebuke him we humbly pray, and do thou, O
Prince of the heavenly hosts, by the Power of GOD,
thrust into hell Satan, and all the evil spirits,
who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls.
Amen. “
