Summary/Abstract: The article describes the liturgical peculiarities of the Acathist to the Mother of God contained in a Russian Psalter of the beginning of the fourteenth century, Vat. slav. 8. The Psalter is written in a strange script consisting of half-letters. The liturgical order of the Acathist is that of a vigil service to be held before the icon of the Mother of God on the night of Monday to Tuesday. The title of the service indicates that it follows the typicon of the Holy Mountain. In its structure the Acathist corresponds to the Jerusalem Typicon, and is closer to the early redaction of it preserved in GIM, Syn. 328 and Syn. 329.
