Comments on the clue
1.Worth a point even though the surface is a bit puzzling!
2.Psalter is a book, not a song or a person? Ergo, surface suffers.
3.psalter ends is not the same as psalter's ends
4.Beautiful.
5."Colonel’s onsite guards hold" is great, but the rest of the clue goes in a strange direction.
