There are no titles to the psalms. The rubric is invariably ps dd, or
psalmus dauid, according to space. One manuscript, F, seems to have
marked the Hebrew divisions of the Psalter in five books. The text of
the psalms is the usual Vulgate, or Gallican, version, as a comparison
with the Vatican edition clearly bears out.5 In ps. 1,3 all the fragments
have the variant reading ‘et omnia que faciet semper prosperabuntur’,
that is, MS S A, where semper has been erased by a later hånd, B, P,
and Nb. This variant is, however, frequently found in psalters from the
same period, sometimes erased, sometimes added over the line.
The Suscipe-Prayer
MSS A, B, c, P, s, t, Nb contain the beginning of the Psalter. We
shall cite the manuscripts in full, except for the versicles of MSS s, t,
Nb, which are very close to those of MS c.
