Diataxis of Philotheos

Philotheos Kokkinos was the Patriarch of Constantinople (1353-1354 and 1364-1376) and formerly the hegumenos of the Great Lavra on Mt. Athos.  He published an order for the divine liturgy, the diataxis.  The diataxis is essentially an outline of the divine liturgy for the priest and deacon that gives the first line of most prayers.
