Menaion — translated by Isaac Lambertsen

Rights-risk acceptedServed

¶1

Irmos: The supremely exalted Lord of our fathers quenched the flame and bedewed the children, who sang together: Blessed art Thou, O God!

¶2

The Light shone upon thee, His spouse, O glorious Euphrosyne, for thou didst possess an upright mind, chanting: Blessed art Thou, O God!

¶3

Theotokion: O most immaculate one, thou gavest birth to the incorporeal God Who was clad in flesh and delivereth us who chant with fear: Blessed art Thou, O God!

¶4

Possessing the Cross as a staff of strength for thee, thou didst pass unharmed through the gaping maws of the demons, O venerable one, chanting: Blessed art Thou, O God!

¶5

O venerable one, thou didst make thy heart a dwelling-place of the Holy Spirit Who strengthened thee and showed thee to be more powerful than the evil spirits.
