Psalms

John and Christine gave me a blank book (approximately 5 X 7 inches) for Christmas in 2013. In 2014 I moved into the second floor apartment at my Uncle Anthony’s home at 36 Carovilli St. in North Providence. When I was born in 1949 this is the very same apartment my parents took me home to from the Providence Lying-In Hospital. While I was there I filled the book with hand drawn excerpts from the Book of Psalms. The first few pages were a learning experience and the lettering wasn’t very good. Thankfully as the year progressed my style and lettering improved. These are images from some of those pages.

This is a list of all the Psalms by the number of verses each has. While twelve (12) verse counts (2, 4, 29, 36, 40, 43, 45, 48, 50, 52, 72, and 176) have only one Psalm, Psalms with eight (8) verses has the highest number, with twelve (12) Psalms (having eight verses). Interesting tidbit.
