The Typikon of the Russian Orthodox Church

Chapter 26. On when the Brethren stand without Staves.

At Matins: always during the Six Psalms, and when we sing “My soul magnifies the Lord” and “It is truly meet.” At the Divine Liturgy: always during the reading of the Gospel, during the Cherubic hymn, and when the Holy Mysteries are brought out.

The background for these pages is the opening page for a 17th century, Slavic Typikon, from the Chilandar Monastery.
