Narrábo

Narrábo ómnia mirabília tuo; lætábor et exsultábo in te; psallam nomíme tuo Altíssime. 

I will tell of Your marvelous wonders; I will rejoice and exalt in You and I will sing psalms to Your Name, O Most High. 

GT: 281

GN: 251

L 239: 55/63, 10-11

E 121: 123, 3-5

I retained elements from the Graduale Triplex and the Graduale Novum. I retained the half step descent on ómnia as it is printed in the Vatican edition, since there is nothing in E 121 to suggest a skip of a third as the editors of the Graduale Novum reconstruct. Both solutions still emphasize LA, a structurally important note in mode II. I did adopt their suggestion on psallam. The sursum indicating a leap to the final, RE, would be appropriate. The whole step before the virga, DO-RE, reinforces the mode.
