'H 6fla ^(iTovpyla ToC fv Aylois narpos ^liaiv rpijyopiou 

 rov AtaKoyoVj ^rot tcov nporfytaafi^viav, called also sim|ily 

 ij nporiyiao-iifvt], The liturgy in which the sacred ele- 

 ments of a previous liturgy are employed. It is used 

 in Lent, except Saturdays and Sundays : except also 

 Annunciation (March 25), which usually comes in 

 Lent. Originally it was performed in connection 

 with vespers, and was called 'H (<nrfptvfi Xeirovpyta, 

 The evening Liturgy. Eukhol. Theod. Ill, 673 D. 



[The liturgies used in the churches of Jerusalem, 

 Antioch, and Alexandria were ascribed to James, 

 Peter, and Mark, respectively, because, according to 

 the popular belief, James the Less, Peter the great 

 apostle, and Mark the Evangelist were the first 

 bishops of Jerusalem, Antioch, and Alexandria, re- 

 spectively. 



The composition of the Constantinopolitan liturgy 

 was attributed to Saint John Chrysostom simply 

 because he was the most celebrated bishop Constan- 

 tinople ever had. For a similar reason the liturgy 

 of the church of Csesarea, in Cappadocia, was re- 

 ferred to Saint Basil the Great. As to the liturgy* 

 published in the second volume of Basil's works, it 

 is an Alexandrian liturgy ; for the city of Alexandria 

 in Egypt is distfnctly mentioned in it. , 



But in order ngt to appear to slight the apostolic 

 see of Rome, the Byzantines, at a late period, intro- 

 duced the fiction that the 7rpoijyta(r/xeVij was the com- 

 position of Saint Gregory Dialogus, commonly known 

 as Pope Gregory the Second, who died in the year 

 731 (Damasc. I, 588 E. Cedr. 1, 799). 



It is hardly necessary to remark here, that the 

 liturgies now used in the Greek Church (Chrysos- 

 tom's, Basil's, and Gregory's), Teceiyed their present 

 form long after the times of the authors whose 

 names they bear.]

[The bones of distinguished saints are believed to 

 exude a kind of fragrant oil {pipov), which is much 

 valued by good Christians. Sceptics, however, most 

 unnecessarily undertake to show that this miraculous 

 exudation owes its existence to the skill of the un- 

 guentariiis (pvpeyjfos). They assert further, that not 

 a few of the holy relics in vogue originally belonged 

 to lambs, kids, and calves. Compare Theoph. 665, 6
