Orach Chayim Siman 662 is a source-text unit from the Shulchan Arukh with 3 seifim. Its reading map separates the practical rule, its conditions and the points that need comparison with the surrounding text.
What to track
Read each seif as a separate step. Identify the action, the condition that limits it and any distinction between cases before moving to the next seif.
Study lens
Look for a turn toward a more precise resolution, Shabbat law and sacred time. The source text remains the primary evidence; this note offers a structured way to enter it rather than replacing close reading.

Original text
<b>סדר תפלת יום ב של סוכות. ובו ג סעיפים:</b><br>ביום שני מברך על נטילת לולב וכן בכל שאר ימים:
The order of prayers on the second day of Sukkot, 3 Seifim: On the second day, we bless "...on the taking of the lulav"; the same for the other days.
אינו מברך זמן ביום שני על הלולב אלא אם כן חל יום ראשון בשבת:
Shehecheyanu is not said on the second day over the lulav unless the first day was Shabbat.
מוציאים שני ספרים וקורין בהם פרשיות שנקראו אתמול ומפטיר במלכים ויקהלו עד בהוציאי אותם מארץ מצרים:
We take out two [Torah] scrolls and read the same sections that were read the previous day. The haftarah is from Kings, "They gathered" [Kings I 8:2] until "when I took them out of Egypt" [Kings I 8:21].
