rubric for vespers

[archer75]

In an order for reader's vespers, I find:

Lord, I Have Cried: Psalms 140, 141, 129, 116

Choir (in tone of first sticheron):
Lord, I have cried unto Thee, hear me; / Hear me, O Lord. / Lord, I have cried unto Thee, hear me; / attend to the voice of my prayer, / when I cry unto Thee; // Hear me, O Lord. Let my prayer be directed / as incense before Thee, / the lifting up of my hands / as an evening sacrifice. // Hear me, O Lord.

Then references to on 10, on 8, on 6, on 4.

How does this work?

And with the prokeimenon, you just read it, read the verse or verses, and repeat the prokeimenon?

 

[ArmyMatt]

prokemena are read, then repeated after each verse, then halved at the end.
