It is a simple bead in the form of a scroll-cylinder with gilded edges and a prayer: "Lord, send Thy grace to help me." This is one of the prayers of St. John Chrysostom. Bishop Theophan the Recluse is a great teacher of prayer wrote about such brief preyers in his letters such words "The appointment of short prayers is to to make the thoughts meet together. The strength is not in the words but in the sense of God. It soon forms the work on the prayer. The feeling for God is unceasing prayer without words."
