Psalm 49i udite haec
1 Hear this, all ye people; give ear, all ye in- / hbitants f the world:
* 2 Both low and high, rich and / por, togther.
3 My mouth shall / spak of wsdom; * and the meditation of my
heart shall be of / nderstnding.
4 I will incline mine / ar to a prable: * I will open my dark sy- / ing
upn the harp.
5 Wherefore should I fear in the / dys of vil, * when the iniquity of
my heels shall / cmpass m about?
6 ey that / trst in their wealth, * and boast themselves in the multi-
tude / f their rches;
7 None of them can by any means re- / dem his brther, * nor give
to God a / rnsom for him:
8 For the redemption of their / sul is prcious, * and it cas- / eth for
ver:
9 at he should still / lve for ver, * and not / se corrption.
10 For he seeth that wise men die, likewise the fool and the brutish /
prson prish, * and leave their / walth to thers.
11 eir inward thought is, that their houses shall continue for ever,
and their dwelling places to all / gnertions; * they call their
lands f- / ter their wn names.
12 Nevertheless man being in / hnour abdeth not: * he is like the /
basts that prish.
Glory be to the / Fther and t the Son * - and / t the Hly Ghost.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and / ver shll be, * - wrld /
without nd. Amen.

syings.
14 Like sheep they are lid in the / grave; * dath shall / fed on
them;
And the upright shall have dominion over themn the / mrning; * and
their beauty shall consume in the grave frm their / dwlling.
15 But God will redeemmy soul fromthe pwer / f the grave: * for
h shall re- / cive me.
16 Be not thou afraid when ne is made / rich, * when the glory of his
huse is / increased;
17 For when he dieth he shall carry nthing a- / way: * his glory shall
nt descend / er him.
18 ough while he lved he / blssed his soul: * and men will praise
thee, when thou doest wll to / thyself.
19 He shall go to the generation f his / fthers; * they shall nver /
see light.
20 Man that is in honour, and nder- / stndeth not, * is like the
basts that / prish.
Glory be to the Fther and / t the Son * and t the / Hly Ghost.
As it was in the beginning, is now, and ver / shll be, * wrld with-

1. O boundless Wisdom, God most high, / O Maker of the earth and
sky, / Who bidst the parted waters ow / In heavn above, on earth
below:
2. e streams on earth, the clouds in heavn, / By ee their or-
dered bounds were givn, / Lest neath th untempered res of day
/ e parch-ed soil should waste away.

/ Renew the fount of life within, / And quench the wasting res of
sin.

truth revealed by ee.
5. OFather, that we ask be done, / rough Jesus Christ, ine only

eternally./ Amen.

During the Magnicat, incense is used near the altar as a symbol of Gods presence in His
house and as a symbol of prayer (Ps. 141:2). Just as God was present with the children of
Israel in the form of a cloud (Exod. 13:21), He is present now during the praises of His
people. Just as the incense arises before the altar, so also our prayers arise to the throne of
God in heaven (Rev. 8:3-4).
