PREFACE

The very nature of the Hours of the Monastic Psalter in the Western Rite provides a rich abundance of devotional materia] for each of the seasons of the Liturgical Year. Although outside of the Holy Triduum and the Week of Pascha the structure of the Psalter does not change, most of the Antiphons, Responsories, Hymns, Scripture and Patristic Cessons, and Collects are changed to correspond to the Feasts and mysteries of Our Lord, the Holy Theotokos, and the Saints. , Therefore, to chant the praying of the Psalter it is necessary to have both the Psalter, as structured by St. Benedict of Nursia, and also the Proper portions of the Psalter that are reserved for the partlcular Feast being observed, This Volume of the Psalter, Volume XXXIII,

""'the Sanctoral Propers for the Julian Months of September (Part 2) and October (Part 1), therefore, is -meant to be used from September 16th I 29th through October 6th I 19th in simultaneous conjunction, with the main portion of the Psalter , given in Volume I, the Psalter Outside of Paschaltide. Therefore, on any given Feast I day during this Month, virtually every Hour of the Monastic Psalter therefore will I require the chanters to have both Volume I and Volume XXXIII of the Psalter in front of them on their analogion or lecturn, and to turn from one to the other, as directed to do in this Volume of the Propers of the Saints. In editing these Volumes, however, every effort has been made to minimize the number of times needed to alternate between the Volumes in use, so that this would be done at most two or three times per Hour or per Nocturn. Keeping in mind that the structure of the Hours during this Season remains the same as that given in Volume I, it should be always understood that when a portion of any Hour is given in this Volume, it completely replaces the same portion given m. Volume I; but any part of any Hour that is given in Volume I, when no replacement for it is given in this Volume, is to be sung in addition to the.~ parts of the same Hour given in this Volume. This, of course, includes the Introduction and Conclusions of each of the Hours" the Hymns at the Little Hours (Prime, Terce, Sext, and None), as well as the Hymns Te" Deum and Te Decet Laus at Night Vigils (Matins). To determine the correct day's text and instructions, it will of course be necessary to have the current year's copy of the Western Rite Julian Calendar, which is annually obtainable from St. Gregory's Press at one of the addresses given on the title page.

Once again, the Editors would like to express their enduring gratitude to the Very Reverend Father John Shaw, onetime Dean of Holy Protection Russian Orthodox Cathedral in Chicago for the Russian Orthodox Church Outside Russia. Father John first pointed us in the direction of these manuscripts, and then spent many hours translating the chant notation and clarifying an understanding of the manuscript which our ineptitude prevented. Likewise, we would want to express our gratitude to Father Justin of Holy Transfiguration Monastery in Boston, Mass. for extending to us the kind permission of Bishop Ephraim for using their translation (1987) of the Psalter. This translation served well our purposes in preserving ancient Orthodox worship, and in the rare places (such as Psalms 13 and 94) where the ancient Western usage derived from the Latin Vulgate translation of St. Jerome of Sidonium had made use of Septuagint manuscripts with additional phrases, these phrases, taken from the translation of the Septuagint by Sir Lancelot Brenton (1851), have been included in our Psalter within parentheses. We are confident that this usage has preserved the ancient meaning of the Psalms which were so dear to the early Christians, and which spoke so directly of the prophecies that were fulfilled in the coming of Our Lord Jesus Christ.

iv

In editing this material, we have taken some liberties regarding matters of capitalization, hyphenation, and versification (which follows that of the Vulgate), so as to best allow the unpracticed eye to chant these texts prayerfully and with a minimum of error. Also, the chant melodies for the many Hymns have been kept to a simple number preserved in these manuscripts, and variant melodies are provided only when the manuscript so directs. In actual medieval usage, many more melodies were probably utilized at the discretion of the Precentors, depending mainly on the training of the Monks or Nuns. In keeping the number of these lower, it is hoped that' our enfeebled minds may not be overly more occupied by the mechanics .of chanting our' praises than by the content of offering in our prayer.

Also, we would like to thank our fellow brethren of, the Synod of our Metropolitan Orthodox Church of Milan at St. Hilarion's Monastery and St. Hilarion:s GUild Press in Austin, Texas for providing so fine a computer typing of

... the text of the Psalms which we, were able to edit. This entire volume is printed using Multi-Lingual Scholar, a /' word processing DOS program put out by Gamma Productions in Santa Monica, California, combined with our own rendition of. Gregorian Chant fonts. This software has made possible that which Monks and Nuns of the ancient Scriptorium could only have dreamed about. ' t

This series is divided into many Volumes, for which Volume I is the Psalter Outside of Paschaltlde, Volume II is the Psalter to be used in Paschal tide (from Ldw Sunday through the Octave of Pentecost), and Volume III begins the Proper Offices with those for the Season of Advent, and Volume XIII, with those for the Feasts of Our Lord, the Holy Theotokos, and the Saints. The Offices of the Holy Triduum and those of the Week of Pascha, while having a Monastic usage, are not technically part of the Monastic Psalter, as the Cathedral Use like that of Old Sarum, not the Rule of St. Benedict, has provided the structure for these offices ever since the Monastic Council of Aachen (Alx-la-Chapelle) in 817 A.D.,' and thus are provided for in separate Volumes of the Pro er.

Finally, we apologize that our effort could not prove to be more grand, since, in order to complete these Volumes in a suitable time frame, we have neglected style ani

J

the multitudinous ornamentations that our holy predecessors provided in their

manuscipts. May Heaven forgive us! And may all who use these volumes pray for the souls of the unworthy workers who have put them together. 0 Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy upon us, the sinners.

Turn away from e-vil, and 1 do good; * seek peace, 1 and pur-sue it.

The Eyes of the Lord are up-on the t righ-teous * and His Ears are opened

unto their 1 sup-plic-a-tion. ~

The Face of the Lord is against them that do 1 e-vil, * utterly to destroy the remembrance J, of them from the Earth.

The righteous cried, and the Lord 1 heard them; * and He delivered them out of all their J, trlb-u-la-tldns.

The Lord is ~igJI unto them that are of a con- J, trite heart; * and He will save

the hum- 1 ble of spir-it. ,

Many are the tribulations of the t right-eous, * and the Lord shall deliver them

lout of them all.

The Lord keep-eth alll their bones; * not one of them_J, shall be bro-ken.

The death of sin-ners is J, e-vil, * and they that hate the righ- 1 teous shall do wrong. The Lord will redeem the souls of His t ser-vants, * and none of them will do

1 wrong that hope in Him.

Glory be to the Fath-er, and to t the -II Son, * and 1 to the Ho-ly Ghost.

As it was in the beginning, both now and t ev-er, * and unto the ages of 1 a-ges. A-men.

and thou shalt J, glor-if-y Me.

Nor let boastrul words of pride corne forth from your mouth. t For the Lord is~ a God of 1 knowl-edge, * and a God That pre-par- t eth His Own wars.

The bow of the mighty is be- 1 come weak, * and the strengthless have girded them- t selves with pow-er.

They that were full of bread have sunk into low ~ es-tate, '" and the hungry have 1 rest-ed in the land.

For the barren hath borne t sev-en, * and she that abounded in children 1 is en-fee-bled.

The Lord slayeth and en-gen-der- 1 eth life; * He bringeth down to Hades, and t brjng-eth up again.

_. The Lord maketh poor and en- 1 rich-eth; :I< He bringeth low and ~ lif-teth high a-gain.

He raiseth the pail-per from 1 the Earth, * and from the dunghill doth He lift t up the poor man

To seat him with the mighty of the 1 pea-pie, * and He maketh him heir of their t throne of glor-Y.

(For the pillars of the Earth are t the Lord's,:I< and He hath set the 1 world up-On them. He will keep the feet of His Saints, t and the wicked shall be silent in the 1 dark-ness.) * For the mighty man shall not be strong 1 in his own strength.

The Lord will weaken his ad-ver- 1 sar-y; * the Lord hath gone up into the Heavens, 1 and hath thun-der-ed.

He will judge the ends of the Earth, t and He will give strength to 1 our kings, * and He will lift up the horn of 1 His An-oin-ted One.

Glory be to the Fath-er, and to 1 the + Son, ... and 1 to the Ho-ly Ghost.

As it was in the beginning, both now and 1 ev-er, '" and unto the ages. of 1 a-ges. A-men.

fall back empty t from mine en-em-ies. ..

_ Then let the enemy pursue my soul, t and take it; and let him tread down my

life in- i to the earth, *_and my glory let him bring t down in-to the dust.

Arise, 0 Lqrd, in Thine T ang-er; * exalt Thyself to the furthest boundaries t of Thine en-em-ies.

them that rage hotly hath J. He per-fee-ted. ,

Behold, he was jn travail with un- i righ-teous-ness; * he hath conceived toil and brought t forth In-i-quit-y. _

He opened a pit and i dug it; * and he shall fall into the t hole which he hath made. Pis toil shall return up-on his l' own head, * and upon his own pate shall his

I will give praise unto the Lord according to His i righ-teous-ness; * and I will chant unto the Name t of the Lord Most High.

Glory be to the Fath-er, and l' to the + Son, * and ~ to the Ho-ly Ghost.
