Levavi Oculos.
1. I will lift up mine _eyes_ un- | to the | hills || From _whence_ |
com-eth | my — | help.
2. My help _com_eth | from the | Lord || Who hath | made — | heaven and |
earth.
3. He will not _suf_fer thy | foot to be | moved. || _He_ that | keepeth
thee | will not | slumber.
4. Behold, _He_ that | keep-eth | Israel || _Shall_ | nei-ther | slumber
nor | sleep.
5. The _Lord_ Him- | self is thy | Keeper: || The _Lord_ is thy De- |
fense up-on | thy right | hand,
6. So that the sun shall not _burn_ | thee by | day || _Nor_ the | moon —
| by — | night.
7. The Lord shall pre_serve_ thee | from all | evil || _He_ | shall pre-
| serve thy | soul.
8. The Lord shall preserve thy going _out_ and thy | coming | in || From
_this_ time | forth for- | ev-er- | more.
Glory be to the _Fa_ther | and to the | Son || _and_ | to the | Ho-ly |
Ghost,
As it was in the beginning, is _now_, and | ev-er | shall be, || _world_
without | end! — _A-_ — | _men_.

Benedictus.
1. Blessed be the Lord _God_ of | Is-ra- | el, || for He hath _visit_ed |
and re- | deem-ed His | people:
2. And hath raised up a _mighty_ sal- | va-tion | for us || in the
_house_ | of His | servant | David;
3. As He spake by the _mouth_ of His | ho-ly | prophets || which have
_been_ | since the | world be- | gan;
4. That we should be _saved_ | from our | enemies || and from the _hand_
of | all that | hate — | us;
5. To perform the mercy _promis_ed to | our fore- | fathers, || and to
re_mem_ber His | ho-ly | Cov-e- | nant:
6. To perform the oath which He sware to our fore-_fa_ther | A-bra- | ham
|| that | He would | give —| us;
7. That we, being delivered out of the _hand_ of our | en-e- | mies, ||
might _serve_ | Him with- | out — | fear,
8. In holiness and _right_eous- | ness be- | fore Him || _all_ the | days
of | our — | life.
9. And thou, child, shalt be called the _prophet_ | of the | Highest, ||
for thou shalt go before the face of the _Lord_ | to pre- | pare His |
ways;
10. To give knowledge of sal_va_tion | unto His | people || _for_ the re-
| mis-sion | of their | sins,
11. Through the tender _mer_cy | of our | God || whereby the Day-spring
_from_ on | high hath | visit-ed | us;
