Kontakion, in Tone III: Spec. Mel: “Of divine faith...”—
Theotokion: Heal thou the wounds of my soul, O Virgin, with thy divine o’ershadowing, and enlighten my mind, which hath been benighted by slothfulness and by the malice of the adverse foe.
Amazed, Rome faithfully praiseth thine honored deeds; for, like a radiant star, O hierarch, thou dost put forth the rays of thy wonders everywhere.
Having risen at dawn for Christ, thou hast been richly illumined with splendors and filled with divine light; and thou dost enlighten those who ever faithfully honor thee.
Having sanctified body and soul, O father, thou didst render thy heart, which ever attendeth unto sweet desire, receptive to the gifts of grace.
Shining with divine dogmas, thou didst darken the deception of Arius, O Ambrose, pastor and teacher of the mysteries. And working wonders through the power of the Spirit, thou didst manifestly heal divers passions, O venerable father. Entreat Christ God, that our souls be saved.
