* On special feast days, these concluding verses of the opening
vesper psalm are chanted instead of being read. **As Georgios
Papadopoulos mentions, the Anoixantaria published by Phokaeus was
actually composed by Antonios Sigalas in 1830 at the request of
monks from Vatopedi Monastery on the Holy Mountain. (Vid.
