Unto us is born
So, wrap our injured flesh around

Our hearts with old sorrow beginning to ache;

With new duties waiting, unknown and unplanned;
With old care still pressing, to fret and to vex,
With new problems rising, our minds

Both Fridays and the number 13 have both been considered “unlucky” down thru the ages.
