This is from one of my favorite
books, "A Wind in the Door" by Madeleine L'Engle. She also wrote
"A Wrinkle in Time" and "A Swiftly Tilting Planet."
She is the author who taught me what a mitochondria was, to trust in things I
couldn't see, and to believe in Magick. St. Patrick's Rune In

I place all heaven with it's power
And the sun with it's brightness
And the snow with it's whiteness
And the fire with all the strength it hath
And the lightening with it's rapid wrath
And the winds, with their swiftness along their path
And the sea with it's deepness
And the rocks with their steepness
And the Earth with it's starkness
All these I place by God's help and grace
Between myself and the powers of darkness
