A text for Students, with Introduction, Translation, and Commentary.

The Sacramentary of Sarapion is a collection of thirty prayers concerning various aspects of liturgical life. In the single extant MS (Greek) they are attributed to Sarapion, the fourth-century bishop of Thmuis (339-363) in Egypt, who was a friend and confidant of Anthony and Athanasius.
