Ancient Legends, Mystic Charms, and Superstitions of Ireland: For the Evil Eye

For the Evil Eye This is a charm Mary gave to St. Bridget, and she wrote it down, and hid it in the hair of her head, without deceit-- "If a fairy, or a man, or a woman hath overlooked thee, there are three greater in heaven who will cast all evil from thee into the great and terrible sea. Pray to them, and to the seven angels of God, and they will watch over thee. AMEN."
