 O God, we humbly beseech you through your servant Saint Dymphna, who sealed with her blood the love she bore you, to grant relief to those who suffer from mental afflictions and nervous disorders, especially (mention the afflicted person). Saint Dymphna, helper of the mentally afflicted, pray for us. Saint Dymphna, comforter of the despondent, pray for us. Saint Dymphna, renowned for many miracles, please pray for us. Follow with one Our Father, one Hail Mary and one Glory Be.&#13;
&#13;
Intentions brought to St Dymphna's well were formerly brought for nine days in a row in a novena.</text>
