Notes

  • "C" = Canticle
  • Some psalms, such as Psalm 88 (Thursday Vigils, Week 2) are separated into sections.  In the office, each section is treated as a psalm.  In all such cases,  the Psalm number is printed in bold (and is one type-size larger than the rest) and the sections are printed in Italic.
  • In the Office of Vigils, the line separating two sets of Psalms (or portions of  psalms) divides these into "Nocturns".
  • The psalm distribution was prepared by Fr. Harry Hagen, OSB.
  • St. Meinrad's holds the copyright for this distribution.
