| | The Catholic Encyclopedia - Eve of a Feast |
| | A similar celebration before the high feast exists also in the Orthodox (Greek) Church, and is called pannychis or hagrypnia. | | | In the Occident only the older feasts have vigils; even the feasts of the first class introduced after the thirteenth century (Corpus Christi, the Sacred Heart) have no vigils, except the Immaculate Conception, which Pope Leo XIII (30 Nov,., 1879) singled out for this distinction. |

| | After the Divine Liturgy came the service of the Pannychis. | | | The twelve Gospel pericopes narrating the events of the passion were read at this service. | | | The Vesperal Divine Liturgy, for the reasons stated above, may well have been the first to be dislodged from its original moorings, moving steadily forward in the day until it came to be celebrated in the morning hour. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Christian Burial |
| | With the Greeks as with the Latins we find a general use of lighted candles held by all present in their hands, as also holy water, incense and the tolling of bells. | | | In the burial of a bishop the Holy Sacrifice or divine liturgy is offered up, and there is in any case a solemn absolution pronounced over the body before it is borne to the grave. | | | With the Greeks as in the Western Communion, after a relatively short service at the house of the deceased, the corpse is borne in procession to the church, and deposited there while the Pannychis, a mournful service of psalmody, is recited or sung. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Matins |
| | The more solemn watches, which were held on the anniversaries of martyrs or on certain feasts, were also known by this title, especially during the third and fourth centuries. | | | The author, however, does not determine the number of psalms which had to be recited. | | | Methodius in his "Banquet of Virgins" (Symposion sive Convivium decem Virginum) subdivided the Night Office or pannychis into watches, but it is difficult to determine what he meant by these nocturnes. |

| | During the service of the Pannychis the Church is kept dimly lit and in accordance with ancient customs, the candles and lamps are extinguished. | | | According to prevailing practice in the Greek Archdiocese, the faithful gather in the Church around 11:00 PM on Great Saturday Night for the Paschal Pannychis or Paschal Vigil. | | | The only lamp left burning is the "Sleepless Lamp" in the sanctuary before the Holy Tabernacle were the reserved sacrament is kept. |

| | Following this section of the Mysteries was the Pannychis, an all-night feast accompanied by dancing and merriment. | | | Others hold this explanation to be insufficient to account for the power and longevity of the Mysteries, and that the experiences must have been internal and mediated by a powerful psychoactive ingredient contained in the kykeon. | | | The dances took place in the Rharian Field, rumored to be the first spot where corn grew. |

| | THE SATYRICON, Volume 7 |
| | For the benefit of those who have not read the author, it is well to state that this Quartilla was a priestess of Priapus, at whose house they celebrated the mysteries of that god. | | | Pannychis is a young girl of seven years who had been handed over to Giton to be deflowered. | | | It is easy to notice that there is a lacuna in that passage of Petronius in which Encolpius is left with Quartilla, looking through a chink in the door, at the actions of Giton and little Pannychis. |

| | He combines mere mentions of a pannychis and a symposion into evidence for the combination of these two rituals into one whole, though he must admit that this was not held in honor of Dionysos, as the rituals suggested by his other evidence seemed to be. | | | He ends his study with a discussion of some fragments of Kallimachos. | | | Bravo, instead, argues that Kritias refers to songs sung and danced to by maidens at a pannychis that was performed together with a symposion of the male members of the same family. |

| | HARRY FARJEON by Philip Scowcroft |
| | He was one of many British composers to conduct his own music at Bournemouth on the platform so thoughtfully and generously provided by Dan Godfrey, for example the Phantasy Concerto (1924-5), the Piano Concerto (1902-19), Idyll for oboe and orchestra, the Characteristic Variations (1903) and the Caldicott Suite (1929). | | | Another symphonic poem, Summer Vision, Farjeon reckoned to be his finest composition but the score was lost in transit to Germany just before the Great War broke out and was never seen again. | | | His symphonic poem, Pannychis, was premiered at the Henry Wood Promenade concerts as late as 1942. |
