Presumably one continued from these notes to the end of the alleluia melisma.
This is particularly evident in the alleluia, which could act as an akroteleuteon, an autonomous musical phrase like a refrain.
Occasionally a text will appear with a different alleluia melody but the usual melody for the verse.
In a very few cases it may be possible to use the assignment of an alleluia as evidence of its place of origin.
The start of the opening alleluia is given at the end of the verse for ease of comparison.
In these cases, it is evident that no attempt was made to adapt the alleluia cycles to the places of destination.
But not one of these eight is among the really popular chants, and thus the correspondence of alleluia and lection on a given day was never that common.
The unfortunate consequence is that the recording includes in its selection of versions the final alleluia without the sequence that is supposed to precede it.
