Blessed in Cursive

Start with the capital B: a tall downstroke, then two bowls drawn from the top, the lower one larger, finishing with a small loop that sits on the baseline. The B does not join: lift the pen after it and start the l with its own entry stroke. The l is a tall loop that returns to the baseline; it runs from the baseline straight into the e. The e is a small loop drawn from the baseline up through the midline and back down; it runs from the baseline straight into the s. The s is a short upstroke to the midline, then a curve back down to the left that closes on the baseline, and the double s is written as one movement. The second s follows without a lift and runs from the baseline straight into the e. The e is written as before; it runs from the baseline straight into the d. The d is an oval closed at the top, then a tall stem on its right side that comes back down to the baseline, and its exit stroke finishes the word.

Nothing is added after the word: there is no i, j, t or x to dot or cross. A common slip in Blessed is leaving s open at the baseline, which turns it into a small r.
