+Psalm 130 (131), as for Evening Prayer for Tuesday of week 3
+
+ [Benedictine Daily Prayer: A Short Breviary has the very nearly the
+  version I like best, but what follows is the Dominican antiphon]
+
+ Learn from me, says the Lord, I am gentle and lowly of heart,
+  you will find rest for your souls
+
+ Oh Lord my heart is not proud, nor haughty my eyes
+ I have not gone after things too great, nor marvels beyond me
+ Truly I have set my soul, in silence and peace
+ Like a weaned child in its mother's arms, even so is my soul
+ Oh Israel hope in the Lord, both now and for ever
+
+ Learn from me, says the Lord, I am gentle and lowly of heart
+  you will find rest for your souls
