About this book

All six verses of the best-loved psalm in the King James Version, built into a gentle faux-calligraphy course. You start with the basic strokes and both alphabets, then take each verse in turn: two key words, the phrase everyone knows, and then the whole verse line by line in traceable script on real four-line guides, with a blank line under every row to write it yourself. Two free-practice pages at the back. No pen pressure to learn and no special nib to buy — a fineliner or gel pen is all it takes. US Letter, print at home as often as you like.

What you will write

6 passages , KJV and public domain. Each one gets key words, a phrase, and then the whole passage line by line.
