My blest Redeemer and my Lord

About this hymn

As printed As printed: running head «CHRIST—LIFE AND CHARACTER.» (a new section begins on this page); hymn number «301» (large), tune name «ROCKINGHAM. L. M.» centred over the music (capitals and small capitals), «LOWELL MASON.» at the right (capitals and small capitals). Stanza 1 is interlinear, between the staves, one line per system, with «1.» before «My» (see `lyrics_syllables.txt`); the first line ends «Lord.» with a full stop in this print (a round stop at 4×–5×, not the tailed comma of «appears,»). Stanzas 2–4 are printed as text in the left column below the music, under the reference line «223, 58, 101.» in italics (= may also be sung to the tunes of hymns 223, 58 or 101). «Isaac Watts.» in italics after stanza 4. The print sets a thin space before «!» and «;» («fill !», «will !», «prayer ;», «pattern ;», «here ;»); it is closed up here. The printer's curly apostrophe is written straight («Father's»). The stanza numbers of the text column are printed without a period («2», «3», «4»); they are written «2.» … here, like the interlinear «1.», as in the other deliveries of this book. The «o» of «of» in stanza 3 line 2 is a slightly larger wrong-fount letter; it is the word «of». Spelling, punctuation and capitals are the print's.
