Exapostilarion—
Irmos: Christ, the Chief Cornerstone uncut by human hands, Who united the two disparate natures, was cut from thee, the unquarried mountain, O Virgin. Wherefore, in gladness we magnify thee, O Theotokos.
On the Praises, 4 stichera, in Tone IV: Spec. Mel.: “Thou hast given a sign…”—
Theotokion: Full of the living water of gladness, O Mistress, thou pourest forth gifts of grace, causing them to well forth abundantly upon all, for for thy sake hath every good thing been given to the world.
The wondrous Eustathius was harrowed by thy discourse as with a plough, O wise Anthony, and the divinely wise John, receiving the seed of thy words like good soil, put forth the grain of martyrdom.
Holding the divine power of Christ as it were an invincible weapon, O blessed ones, ye cut through all the demonic powers and the incorporeal warriors of darkness, and laid hold of the trophies of victory; wherefore, standing before Christ, the Judge of the contest, pray ye for us who honor your memory. Twice
Glory…, Now & ever…: theotokion—
Having won honors by your great struggle, O all-wise martyrs, ye received from God rewards for your labor and pain. Him do ye entreat in behalf of us who commemorate you, O holy ones.
Refusing to worship fire, and being subjected to fire and torments, O ever memorable ones, ye received heavenly dew, divine rest and everlasting joy; and having utterly consumed the princes of darkness by your endurance of pain, O all-wise martyrs, ye have made the faithful steadfast in true piety.
Now & ever…: theotokion, in the same tone—
Standing now before the throne of the King of all and delighting in the good things which are to come, O divinely blessed ones, be ye mindful of those who honor your sacred memory.
Ye put in at the calm harbor, O wise martyrs, having been delivered from the tumultuous waves and billows of great turmoil; and gathering in everlasting life, the fruit of your pangs, remember us who honor your memory, O blessed ones.
Resplendent with the beauties of martyrdom, O martyrs, ye have now truly received from God the reward of your labors. Entreat ye the Benefactor in our behalf!
Glory…, in Tone VIII—
O all-hymned Maiden, thou gavest birth to Christ, the Angel of great Counsel, the King of glory, Whose Cross the martyrs took up, hastening after Him. With them pray thou unceasingly for us.
O true and valiant martyrs, neither the violence of the tyrant, nor his false blandishments, neither the severing of your members, nor the threat of death was able to separate you from the love of God; wherefore, as ye have boldness before Christ Who is God over all, by your supplications entreat Him to grant us great mercy.
O Mistress, accept the supplications of thy servants, and deliver us from all want and grief.
