Thou wast full of living waters, O blessed Gregory, like a river issuing forth from the noetic Eden, watering the face of the Church and drying up the abyss of idolatry.
Standing like a candle upon a candlestick, thou didst shine far and wide with the light of thy good works, O father, for by thine instruction the light of the vision of God illumined the unbelieving people, and the land enlightened by thee rejoiceth.
