# Sunday Matins' fixed 12-psalm/3-canticle psalmody (Rule of Benedict ch. # 18's own Sunday arrangement, distinct from Roman Matins' 9-psalm Sunday # scheme). Sourced from Divinum Officium's Monastic-labeled block, # `Latin/Psalterium/Psalmi/Psalmi matutinum.txt`'s `[Daym0]` section # (English parallel at the same section name in the `English/` tree), and # live-verified against a real `prayMatutinum` query (Monastic Tridentinum # 1617, 2026-09-06, an ordinary Sunday with no feast collision) — the # psalm numbers, canticle citations, and lesson/Te Deum sequence all # matched exactly. # # Unlike the ferial weekday table (psalter-distribution.yml's `matins:`), # this doesn't vary by weekday — it's the same every Sunday, but the # antiphon *text* does vary by season even though the psalm numbers don't: # `[Advm0]` right after `[Daym0]` in the same source file has its own # Advent-specific antiphon set. Only the plain (non-seasonal) `[Daym0]` set # is authored here; seasonal variants are a deferred follow-on, not # required for this build (see TODO.md). # # Nocturn 3's 3 canticles are identified via `Psalterium/Monastic # canticles.txt`'s internal numbering key (266 = Isa 33:2-10, 267 = Isa # 33:13-18, 268 = Sirach/Ecclesiasticus 36:14-19, cited "sir" per this # project's own scripture-store convention), confirmed by the live query # ("Canticum Isaiæ" / "Canticum Isaiae" / "Canticum Ecclesiasticae"). # Unlike nocturns 1-2 (each psalm pair under its own antiphon), all 3 # canticles share a single antiphon ("Allelúja, allelúja, allelúja"). nocturn1: groups: - psalms: [20, 21] antiphon: la: "Dómine * in virtúte tua lætábitur rex." en: "The king rejoices * in Thy strength, O Lord." - psalms: [22, 23] antiphon: la: "Dóminus regit me * et nihil mihi déerit: in loco páscuæ ibi me collocávit." en: "The Lord ruleth me * and I shall want nothing.
