Terce is a fixed time of prayer of the Divine Office of the almost all the Christian liturgies.
In the Greek Church Terce is composed of two parts, each made up of psalms (two for the first, three for the second), with invitatory, troparia, and final prayer.

Each day will be characterized by two periods of meditation, one in the morning before the chanting of Terce, the other in the evening before dinner.
The morning meditation is followed by the Chanting of Terce, one of the "little" hours of the Divine Office, and a suitable liturgical preparation for the daily conventual Mass.

Terce is derived from the Latin meaning 'third', meaning the third hour of the day (the day was thought to start at 6am), so that would be around 9am.
There was some variation on the exact timing of the hours, but they were all sung/said in the stricter monasteries, other orders occasionally tending to miss out, for example, Terce and None.
Terce, Sext and None continue, but can collectively be referred to as Prayer During the Day.

The Christian prayer of that time consisted of almost the same elements as the Jewish: recital or chanting of psalms, reading of the Old Testament, to which was soon added reading of the Gospels, Acts, and Epistles, and at times canticles composed or improvised by the assistants.
The service of eventide, Vespers, and that of the morning, Matins or Lauds, were gradually separated from it.
During the day, Terce, Sext, and None, customary hours of private prayers both with the Jews and the early Christians, became later ecclesiastical Hours, just like Vespers or Lauds.

 Book of Hours : Hours of the Virgin
The Canonical Hours which give the book its name do not correspond to the modern sixty-minute intervals, but rather to eight less precisely defined portions of the day, each lasting approximately three hours.
Their names are Matins, Lauds, Prime, Terce, Sext, None, Vespers and Compline.
Prime, the first hour of the Roman day, corresponded to approximately six o’clock a.m., and gives the Book of Hours (and any elementary book) its British name, the "Primer." Terce, the third hour, began at nine o’clock, and Sext began in the sixth hour, at midday.

 Hore b.m.v. ad Primam
Prime, Terce, Sext and None are called the "small hours" because they are short, - only consisting of a hymn, three psalms, one antiphon, the chapter (with responsory) and the final prayer(s).
The hymn is in most cases the same at all the small hours, which can be confirmed at Terce.
It is in reality a sequence of 3-4 stanzas, and when Memento salutis takes over in the late 15th century is it in many cases because Veni creator has been left out.
