The Rule of St. Benedict - Chapter 48. The Daily Manual Labor

(1) Idleness is the enemy of the soul. Therefore, the brothers should have specified periods for manual labor as well as for prayerful reading.

(2) We believe that the times for both may be arranged as follows:
(3) From Easter to the first of October, they will spend their mornings after Prime till about the fourth hour at whatever work needs to be done.
(4) From the fourth hour until the time of Sext, they will devote themselves to reading.
(5) But after Sext and their meal, they may rest on their beds in complete silence; should a brother wish to read privately, let him do so, but without disturbing the others.
(6) They should say None a little early, about midway through the eighth hour, and then until Vespers they are to return to whatever work is necessary.
(7) They must not become distressed if local conditions or their poverty should force them to do the harvesting themselves.
(8) When they live by the labor of their hands, as our fathers and the apostles did, then they are really monks.
(9) Yet, all things are to be done with moderation on account of the faint hearted.
