The 1973 Graduale Romanum gives _only_ the Psalm verse, and no Gloria Patri, so 
it is clear that repeating the antiphon at this point is at least possible.  My 
understanding is that in general the current expectation is more frequent 
repetition of antiphons than the Tridentine habit of just once each at 
beginning and end of a psalm.  

Besides, as I am sure you realise, it was only intended as an example.
