(Crucifix in hand, Don Martín begins his curing ritual...)

M- In the name may it be of God the All Powerful

 In the name of God the All Powerful

 that the evil spirits

 be removed far from this brother

 that they serve to value thee

 mocking spirits

 may it be thy credulity.

 God, pray will all

 the forces of my soul

 but I wish that they pour out

 over thy brother

 the mercy of God.

 

 Good Spirit which hates

 and preserves the jealousy of the hate

 all benevolence, all

 sentiment contrary to charity,

 for these are many other doors

 open to the spirit of evil

 with my pains the Holy Sacraments

 to the House of Jerusalem, Amen.

 

 Saint Anthony, on a good path

 that in thy hands and those of the child

 that praying a prayer

 that the pilgrim

 prayed when Jesus Christ came

 five in the divine altar

 flowing drops of blood

 from the hands and the feet

 wipe, wipe, Magdalene

 do not thou tire of cleaning.

 

 That these are the five

 wounds that I must pass

 with the small and the

 great and all of Christendom.

 King of the eternal dwelling

 may one day it please thee

 that angels descend from heaven saying

 Hail Mary three times a day:

 Hail Mary, Hail Mary, Hail Mary.

 

 Saint Nicholas is lost

 The Virgin is looking for him.

 My Lady I have not seen

 there pass by here

 a dazzling star.

 Yes, My Lady, yes I saw

 that by here it went passing;

 Saint John and The Magdalene

 carry it in their hand.

 

 Let us walk, let us walk

 until we arrive at Calvary

 that though we walk faster

 they will have already crucified Him

 they will have nailed Him

 the nails in his divine side

 the blood that there spills

 falls into the sacred chalice

 and the man to whom it is given

 will be well blessed.

 

 Forever and ever, Amen.

 

 As Thou art of Nature, My God,

 to this unhappy creature

 do not give the burial

 between the wings of evil

 give him strength and worth

 to be saved from the abyss;

 give him grace for the same

 that thy goodness is so great

 with my fragile arrogance

 and flooded the human sea

 I have crossed so alone through pleasure.

 

 Let him, Lord, that he again

 walks on the continent

 making fervent vows

 to be a faithful Christian.

 If I with my foolish lack

 have strayed into the fog

 challenging the foam

 lift the storm,

 I offer that from hereon

 I will not have the gall

 to become deaf to the lament

 of he who suffers in that evil

 and following my road I have had

 that brazenness to mock that Pharoah

 that the harbor come near me.

 

 I promise thee, My God,

 not to mock that light

 that shines over the cross

 through Thy Son and Thy Love.

 

 Thou, Father of my soul

 who listens to the afflicted.

 May thou achieve repentance

 of what thy life was.

 

 Save him, My God. Save him, My God,

 and give me an account beforehand

 so that I may repent

 in the necessary time. Amen.

 with thy charity and love.

 Today go out on the road,

 Great Apostle of The Lord.

 I pray thee, Sacred Apostle

 that so alone at the invoking

 that when I see him tribulating

 thou always may be in thy calling

 in whatever grave danger,

 in whatever sad affliction,

 in whatever road where he may travel,

 Peter. And your protection then one mercy

 I pray thee through your refulgent shadow

 though many the enemies who follow him

 daily in an assault on the road

 in a disastrous hour.

 

 Cover him divine Peter

 with thy shadow so sacred

 when on the road he goes forth

 and a sorcerer springs forth.

 And there thy shadow he may value

 the name of the Lord,

 thou by God were elected

 to be His apostle scribe.

 

 Lord Saint Peter of the reliquary

 in the mansion of the earth

 in whatever crisis or danger

 of persecution or of war, Peter,

 may thou do what God enjoys in heaven.

 

 Through thee all good may be reached:

 open the doors, Peter.

 

 The great blessings

 thou art their custodian

 wherever he may go out

 in the night and in the day

 there thy shadow may be to his value

 Divine, Sacred Apostle.

 

 I pray thee with efficacy

 that I may not lose the grace

 through that great pain

 of when thou repenting

 when thy soul forgiven

 may be of mortal blame,

 do not deny the entrance

 to the holy country.

 

 Beg the Lord for us

 that to thee we make our petition.

 Favor thy devotees

 who pray thy devotion. Amen Jesus.

 On Friday that day

 was there the Virgin Mary.

 She had a little golden book.

 She prayed one half, she offered one half.

 And there came her precious Son

 "What doest thou Mother Mary?"

 Not sleeping nor waking

 yet that she dreamed a dream.

 On that Mount Calvary there were

 three crosses. Nailed

 onto the highest of those was

 the Lord crucified,

 nailed by the feet and hands

 but that no one helped Him

 except that through John the Baptist

 who preached in the mountains.

 A woman was there named Monica

 with a cloth with which she cleaned

 pressed there against His face.

 One should pray this prayer

 upon laying down and rising

 [and] might discover Most Holy Mary seated

 in her throne up until

 one may die in her arms

 Amen Jesus.

 

 The angel seated at his guard

 reliquary of the Lord

 that for Him was created

 for protection and guardian:

 I entreat thee, blessed angel,

 through thy grace and knowledge

 thou hast to defend him

 from the snares and deceptions

 of the accursed

 until present be his soul found

 to the Lord, this I believe. Amen.

 

 Thanks I give, Great Lord.

 I praise Thy great power,

 that with charity and love

 Thou hast let us see the dawn.

 Thus I pray thee, my God,

 with health in my soul,

 body for to know and believe

 that there is God in heaven

 on the earth and in all places.

 Amen Jesus.

 

 The divine providence

 extend itself in each moment

 so that we not lack anything

 shod and clothed and fed.

 God save thee Queen and Mother,

 Mother of Mercy, our hope.

 God save thee; thee we love

 the banished sons of Eve

 and we sigh and whining and crying

 in this valley of tears

 be thou thus Lady our advocate

 to ourselves those thy merciful eyes

 that later in this banishment

 show us Jesus,

 Blessed Fruit of thy womb.

 

 O Clement, O Pious, O Sweet,

 O always Virgin Mary!

 Pray for us, Holy Mother of God,

 so that we may be dignified

 and deserving of reaching

 the divine grace and promises

 of our Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

 

 Bless the bed and chant to chant

 with God I lay down and with God I arise

 with the grace of God and

 that of the Holy Spirit,

 God with me and I with He,

 God before me and I behind Him

 the blood which died in Him

 speak and respond for me

 placate the hearts

 which aspire against me.

 Through the consecrated hosts

 which were shared this day today,

 they remained thus shared.

 Animals and enemies

 that aspire against me

 may a wind come and take them

 and the rest to be forgotten,

 Sweet Jesus of my life

 master of my heart

 let not that my soul be lost

 and die without confession. Amen Jesus.

 

 My Mother of Guadalupe

 now I am placed in the road

 to what saint will I acclaim

 who want to be my godparents

 to the patriarch Saint Joseph

 or to the Divine Sacrament.

 Most Holy Virgin of Guadalupe

 cover me with thy Most Holy,

 Most Pure Mantle

 O Virgin of Perpetual Succor,

 Succor protect me defend me

 from my furies, from my enemies

 and leave me in peace

 and that I not lack my daily bread

 and thus may it be.

 

God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit forever and ever. Amen

Spirit of Eduardo do not stay

 

H- I'm coming.

 

God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit forever and ever. Amen

Spirit of Eduardo do not stay

 Jesus, Mary and Joseph Holy Trinity

 glorify his soul, Lord,

 and may his spirit be filled with joy

 in contemplating the goodness

 of God my Savior,

 because He has placed His gaze

 upon this thy humble servant

 and for that reason which

 they achieve joyousness

 and happiness throughout all generations

 since they have made thy favor

 as great and marvelous ones.

 Before the All Powerful

 a man is infinitely holy;

 His mercy extends

 from generation to generation to all

 that number which fear this thy power.

 He scattered the pride of the arrogant

 transforming their destinies.

 He divested the powerful

 in the humble barrio to the Mexicans

 full of good things and the rich

 He left with nothing at all.

 I exalt Israel,

 Thy servant remembering him

 through Thy great mercy and kindness

 to our first Fathers

 Abraham and to all his known descendants,

 but most zealously to his forefathers

 of the house of the most holy Trinity

 God the Father, God the Son

 God the Holy Spirit

 forever and ever. Amen

 

God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit, forever and ever. Amen.

 

Ready.

 

H- Thank you.

M- To God. We'll see you. Well, yes, here you have me at Calle Sexta and Avenida Samaniego.

H- OK.

M- Martín Gonzáles your servant.

H- My countrymen, the gringos, know nothing about these things, but they are very interested and they wish to know something of Mexican culture.

M- Yes.

H- As they are neighbors. And truly they are more than neighbors, since they live practically together but they hardly understand each other.

M- Yes.

H- But they had just better learn to. Right?

M- My mother - may she rest in peace! - told me, "Look, my son, what you know do not hide. You let it be for the people because it is one thing and others such as, for example, rattlesnake for the varicose, to cure varicose [veins].

"For the women, the fat of skunk for whatever pneumonia. No matter how great it is, even double pneumonia it takes away. A little of the fat rubbed on. The meat of the same skunk."

H- Thank you, and I won't take up any more of your time, because I know you have people waiting.

M- Martín Martínez Gonzáles at your service, at the corner of Calle Sexta and Avenida Samaniego.
