The calculation is reduced to the ordinary perturbation theory for the nonrelativistic Schrödinger equation. The perturbation operators have the Breit-type structure and are obtained by calculating on-mass-shell diagrams. Found energy corrections constitute numerically $δE(2 ^1 P_1)=0.06$ MHz, $δE(2 ^3 P_2)=0.08$ MHz, $δE(2 ^3 P_1)=0.025$ MHz, $δE(2 ^3 P_2)=-0.58$ MHz.LaTeX, 15 pages, BudkerINP-93-80High Energy Physics - PhenomenologyOrder α^4 R_{\infty} corrections to positronium P levelstext
