Psalms and canticles throughout the week for praying the Divine Office according to current guidelines for Benedictine communities, with the psalms of Prime distributed over the other Little Hours). The translation is that of The Book of Common Prayer 1979 (Episcopal Church USA). Other material, such as readings, responses, collects, and antiphons, is not included. The book provides for orderly recitation of psalms and canticles in clear type, with plenty of white space and no page flipping. Just page through the psalter as you pray through the week. Anything needed again is repeated. The psalter can be used alone as a contemplative office or to recite the psalm portions of an office such as the Book of Common Prayer, Benedictine Daily Prayer, or Liturgy of the Hours. C1 canticles can be used during most of the year; C2 canticles are for Advent and Lent. Or the C1 and C2 canticles can be used on a two-week cycle, or both canticles can be used as they occur.
