You need Ground on the Voltage source too

Cheers, thats a help. but when I run it, it appears that the current is running through the diodes in both directions....

Diodes have a little capacitor and the frequency of the voltage source is very high. So diodes are conducting through their own capacitor. It should be good to decrease source frequency and increase source voltage. Also modify the time base for better display.

Threshold diode voltage is about 0.8 V. So you need to increase source voltage to get a good output voltage

Normal silicon diodes cannot be used in rectifier applications at very high frequencies. The 1/2f time interval is extremely small and <<< than the reverse recovery time of a silicon diode, which means that the diode does not get enough time to stop the flow of charge carriers when it enters the phase from forward bias to reverse bias and back to forward bias. You need to use schotkey diode for high speed applications aka high frequency applications. Hope this answers your question

Too high frequency

Dude ur voltage input is too low to drive the bulb unless you want it only for current.
