Saitada's Prayer As it's apparently too long for bsky.app text it's in a photo, sorry for the legibility Read the alt text for the extras
The written poem of the prayer to Saitada as it's apparently too long to fit in the text bit.
Saitada's a local goddess of the Tyne valley associated with grief, there's a stone/style dedicated to her at Vindolanda
She features in my stories in her aspect as a goddess of grief and the moon. 
Did you know every time you throw a coin into water, spring, fountain etc. it's an act of worship. Makes her a powerful goddess.
Her familiars are magpies and foxes
