breviary: a book containing prayers, hymns, etc. for everyday use
Example:
I remember seeing him one morning in the Volkswagen outside our house. He had slept in it all night because he didn’t want to wake us. And when I opened the curtains he was praying from his breviary and there was something serene and calm in his eyes that I envied. He was like a ghost in my world and he was enveloped in a solitude I have sought ever since. [source: A loneliness so far from the heart of darkness]
