Observations of a number of helium triplet (10830, 4713, 4471, 3889, 4026 A) and hydrogen (H-gamma, delta, eta, and theta) emission-line intensities in six quiescent prominences are presented. The regions of prominence and neighboring corona were raster-scanned by the telescope, and all lines were measured concurrently at each point. The results are compared with previous observations and theory. In particular, the intensity of the 10830-A emission relative to the other triplets is found to differ strongly from the predictions of the recent detailed calculations of Heasley et al. (1974) for model quiescent prominences.
