Summary/Abstract: The paper concerns with two most ancient Bulgarian sluzebniks. The služebniks are kept in the State Historical Museum (Moscow) – the manuscript of 13th с. Хлуд. 117 from the A. I. Khludov collection and the manuscript of the first half of 14th с. Увар. 46 from the P. S. Uvarov collection. The structure of the Presanctified Liturgy are studied. The classification of the texts of Presanctified Liturgy in all Slavonic služebniks of 12th–14th c. are given before the consideration of Хлуд. 117 and Увар. 46. The manuscripts Хлуд. 117 and Увар. 46. keep some ancient liturgical elements of the Presanctified Liturgy Vespers in more detailed form than other Greek and Slavonic liturgical sources. These manuscripts have also valuable texts of prayers connected with the Great Entrance. Thus, služebniks Хлуд. 117 and Увар. 46 are not only the significant evidence of the Bulgarian liturgical practice in the 13th–I4th с. but also important sources of the Byzantine rite.
