With the purpose of detecting periodic oscillations or waves in a quiescent prominence, temporal variations of a Ca II K line profile have been studied. The most conspicuous phenomenon found here is the fact that the edge of the prominence showed, over some 20000 km along the spectrograph-slit, periodic velocity fluctuations of nearly the same phase with periods of 210 - 240 s and with an amplitude of up to ±2 km s-1. At other portions, several different periods of peaks (160 - 400 s) can also be seen in the power spectra, but less distinctly. As to the intensity and the line width, however, no periodic variations have been detected.
