Reading, keeping vigil and prayer focus the wandering mind. Hunger, toil and solitude
quell inflamed desire. Psalmody, patience and pity arrest seething anger.
And these are to be practiced at the appropriate time and in good
measure, for what is excessive and ill-timed is not lasting,
and what does not last is harmful
rather than beneficial.

When you approach a king,
you stand before him bodily, entreat him orally,
and fix your eyes upon him, thus drawing to yourself his royal favour.
Act in the same manner, whether in church or in the solitude of your cell. When
in God's name you gather together with the brethren, present yourself bodily to God
and offer Him psalms chanted orally; and likewise keep your intellect attentive to the
words and to God Himself, aware of who it is that your intellect addresses and
entreats. For when the mind devotes itself to prayer actively and
with purity, the heart is granted inexpressible peace
and a joy which cannot be taken away.

It was explained to the blessed Epiphanios, bishop of Cyprus, by the abbot of the
monastery he had in Palestine: "In accordance with your instructions we have not
neglected our rule, but diligently discharge Terce, Sext, and None." However,
Epiphanios corrected them and made it clear to them, saying: "You
obviously neglect the other hours of the day when you refrain
from prayer, for the true monk must have prayer and
psalmody in his heart without ceasing."

A religious hymn
is a great blessing for everyone.
It constitutes praise to the Most High,
honor for His holy people, worldwide harmony,
an eloquent proof of the Church's unity. It expresses the voice
of the Church, its confession. It brings about a complete spiritual uplifting
and absolute peace and joy in redeemed hearts, with the triumphal hymn
and song of happiness. It drives away hardness of heart. It chases
away disturbance. It dissolves and dissipates despondency. . .
The voice sings the soul's joy, while the spirit
delves into the mysteries of the faith.

October 11 - St. Theophanes 139
A psalm is a city of refuge from the demons; a means of inducing help from the angels,
a weapon in fears by night, a rest from the toils of the day, a safeguard for infants,
an adornment for those at the height of their vigor, a consolation for the elders,
a most fitting ornament for women. It peoples the solitudes; it rids the
market places of excesses; it is the elementary exposition of beginners,
the improvement of those advancing, the solid support of the
perfect, the voice of the Church. It brightens feast day; it
creates a sorrow which is in accordance with God.
For, a psalm calls forth a tear even from
a heart of stone. A psalm is the work
of angels, a heavenly institution,
the spiritual incense.

I think it is useful
to have diversity and variety
in the prayer and psalmody at these
appointed times, because somehow the soul is
frequently bored and distracted by routine, while by
change and variety of the psalmody and prayer at each
hour its desire is renewed and its concentration restored.

October 15 - St. Lucian 152
For since human nature rejects
and avoids what is difficult, even if beneficial,
and accepts virtually nothing unless it seems to offer pleasure,
through David the Lord prepares from men this potion which is sweet
by reason of its melody and effective in the cure of disease by reason of its
strength. For a psalm is sweet to the ear, it penetrates the soul when it gives pleasure,
it is easily remembered when sung often, and what the harshness of the Law cannot
force from the minds of man it excludes by the suavity of song. For whatever
the Law, the Prophets and even the Gospels teach is contained as a
remedy in the sweetness of these songs.
