PALMER, REV.G.H. - The Order For Placebo or Vespers of the Dead from the Diurnal Noted.

Wantage: St Mary's Press, 1947. Nine page booklet with musical line and words for the vespers of the dead adapted by Rev.G.H.Palmer. Brown card covers. VG.** "By the eighth century, the Christian Church in the West had an established form and content of its Office of the Dead ritual, taking the relevant verse from the Vulgate. At the end of each recited passage, the congregation made a response (antiphon) to each recitation. The celebrant’s first recitation was Psalm 116:1–9 [1] (Psalm 114:1–9 in the Septuagint), and the congregation’s first responding antiphon was verse 9 of that Psalm.(wiki).** "Palmer was a prolific scholar and restorer of plainsong to the Church of England, and published numerous volumes of this traditional music set out for its appropriate liturgical use."(stmarysprimrosehill).Psalm 114:9 in the Vulgate says, [2] "placebo Domino in regione vivorum"[2] ("I will please the Lord in the land of the living"); the equivalent verse in English bibles is Psalm 116:9, "I will walk before the Lord in the land of the living".".
