Transcription Text transcribed from audio recording or document CUTTING FROM A “PENGUIN” PAPER BACK WHICH I WAS READING TO MLLE A. BECQUETT WHILST BEING HELPED BY HER SEPT 1941. “THE ESCAPERS PRAYER” “PSALM 107”. “’Let them give thanks whom the Lord hath redeemed and delivered from the hand of the enemy, and gathered them out of the lands, from the east, and from the west, and from the south. They went astray in the wilderness out of the way, and found no city to dwell in. Hungry and thirsty, their soul fainted in them. So they cried unto the Lord in their trouble, and He delivered them from their distress. He led them forth by the right way, that they may go to the city where they dwelt. Oh that man would therefore praise the Lord for his goodness, and declare the wonders that He doth for the children of men.’ Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
