Prayer (in G-flat)

• In measure 9, no note is given for the first beat of the bottom line. A quarter rest was added. 
• Measures 5 through 12 were copied and added to the end as per Robert Helps note at the end of this section. 
• The middle section of the piece sounds strange, but that is what I see is written.

 Prayer

• Added a silent measure between 1 and 3 since measure 1 was isolated on its own page. 
• In measure 10, no note is given for the third beat of the top line. A quarter rest was added. 

Extra Figures

• Where nothing was written in the bottom line, rests were added. 
• Final bar lines were added between what seem to be separate ideas. 
• In measure 27, the last 8th note was changed to a quarter note to fit the time signature. 
• In measure 30, a dot was added to the last quarter as the note value is unclear. 
• In measure 37, some notes are unclear, and a dot was added to the last quarter to fit the time signature.
