Clarification
I've updated to reflect that indeed the Cap and Tippet are used among Western Rite Orthodoxy. Also, the little 'burn' on the Old English surplice, which not only is used by ROCOR, but I have seen in use at AWRV parishes - not all AWRV parishes use the short Roman lace surplices. - [[User:Aristibule|Aristibule]]
== Clarification ==
I would just like to get two things clarified:
* Miter: all bishops wear this; the episcopal mitre is topped by a cross, unlike the priestly mitre
Q-Do all bishops wear a cross on top of their miter, or is it just archbishops and metropolitan (etc...). Is it related with the cross on the klobuk?
and...
* Panagia/Engolpion - medallion usually depiction the Theotokos (Blessed Virgin Mary) holding the Christ Child. Some bishops (and all primates of autocephalous churches) have the dignity of a second panagia.
Q-I was just wondering with the wording of the latter sentence ("dignity of a second panagia"). Is it a second panagia, or an englopion?
