VI. The =phainolion= answers in all respects to the Western chasuble; and it is evident that we are to see in its appellation the old name _paenula_. The Malabar Christians have a vestment called the _phaino_, which in appearance corresponds to the cope; but its use assimilates it to the =phainolion=, as we should expect from the identity of name. The _phaino_ is made of more or less costly materials, it is square (not semicircular) in shape with rounded corners. A button and loop answer the purpose of the Western morse. It may be here stated that the embroidery and material of the _zando_ usually corresponds with that of the _phaino_ with which it is worn. The priests of the Armenian Church also wear a cope-shaped chasuble. Small bells are sometimes hung round the lower edge. The =phainolion= of bishops was formerly distinguished from that of priests by being covered with crosses; hence called =phainolion polystaurion=. VII. The =epigonation= is a lozenge-shaped ornament, made of brocade, and suspended by one corner on the right side of the =epitrachêlia= of bishops. It is ornamented with embroidery on its surface, and with tassels attached to the three free corners. It was originally a handkerchief, and it remained in this form for some considerable time; in fact, it remains a handkerchief in the Armenian Church. Although properly peculiar to bishops, certain other ecclesiastics wear it as a special privilege. VIII. The =ômophorion= is equivalent to the Western _pall_ (though it is worn by all prelates, not by archbishops only), and similar to it in shape; it is, however, rather wider, and is worn round the neck in a knot. It is said to symbolize the lost sheep—presumably from its being carried on the shoulder. IX. The =mandyas= is a vestment similar to the cope, worn on certain occasions by Archimandrites and the higher orders of the Hierarchy. The difference between it and the Western cope consists in its being rather fuller, and fastened at the lower ends in front as well as at the top. Small bells are hung round its lower edge. The =mandyas= of an archimandrite is not ornamented; that of a prelate is decorated with wavy stripes called =potama kai pômata=, 'rivers and cups'[89]—a fanciful method of expressing the 'rivers of grace which flow from him.'[90] X, XI. The =chamalauchê= is a cap, the =exôchamalauchê= a hood worn over it. The =exôchamalauchê= of a Metropolitan is white, signed in front with a black cross, that of other prelates black. XII. The =pateressa= corresponds to the pastoral staff, but it is shorter and is used as an ordinary walking-stick, which it resembles in every particular. The handle is usually an ornamental modification of the crutched or tau cross. The bishops of the Eastern Church wear no ring. XIII. The =enkolpion= is a pectoral cross, worn in the East, and similar in all respects to the cross worn in the West.
