The Women with Mary took ointments
with them; and while they were
apprehensive about achieving their
objective, they saw that the stone
had been rolled aside, and a Holy
Youth removed all anxiety and
trouble from their souls by saying:
The Lord Jesus had risen!
Wherefore, they make known to His
Disciples, that they should hasten to
Galilee and behold Him, Risen from
the dead; for He is the Lord, the
Giver of Life.
Now and ever, and to the Ages of
ages.
Amen

ages, and in the Last Times, without
seed, became Flesh of the Virgin: to
Christ our God let us cry aloud:
Thou hast raised up our horn! Holy
art Thou, O Lord!
Rod of the Root of Jesse, and Flower
that blossomed from his stem, O
Christ, Thou hast sprung from the
Virgin. From the Mountain
overshadowed by the Forest Thou
hast come, made Flesh from her that
knew not wedlock, O God Who art
not formed from matter. Glory to
Thy Power, O Lord!
As Thou art God of Peace and Father of
Mercies, Thou hast sent to us Thine
Angel of Great Counsel, granting us
Peace. So are we guided towards the
Light of the Knowledge of God, and,
watching by night, we Glorify Thee,
O Lover of mankind!
The sea monster spat forth Jonah as it
had received him - like a babe from
the womb - while the Word, having
dwelt in the Virgin and taken Flesh,
came forth from Her yet kept Her
uncorrupted. For being Himself not
subject to decay, He preserved His
Mother free from harm.
Scorning the impious Decree, the
Children brought up together in
Godliness feared not the threat of
fire - while standing in the midst of
the flames, they sang O God of our
Fathers, Blessed art Thou!
We Praise, we Bless and we Worship
the Lord!
The furnace - moist with Dew - was the
image and figure of a Wonder
beyond nature. For it burnt not the
Children whom it had received, even
as the Fire of the Godhead
consumed not the Virgins Womb
into which It had descended.
Therefore in praise let us sing: Let
the whole Creation Bless the Lord
and Exalt Him above all forever!

Thou wast Consecrated unto God;
and now after Thy birth Thou art
offered as a Gift to Him, in
fulfilment of Thy Parents Promise.
To the Divine Temple Thou art
brought, Thyself a Temple truly
Divine, innocent from the time Thou
was a babe; Thou has appeared in
the Sanctuary accompanied by
brightly burning lamps, who art the
Receiver of the Divine Light that no
man can approach. Magnificent in
Truth is Thine Entry, O Only Bride of
God and Ever Virgin!

Tomb when the sun had risen.
And they said among themselves: Who
will roll away the stone from the door
of the Tomb for us?
But when they looked up, they saw that
the stone had been rolled away - for
it was very large.
And entering the Tomb, they saw a
young man clothed in a long white
robe sitting on the right side; and
they were alarmed.
But he said to them: Do not be
alarmed. You seek Jesus of Nazareth,
Who was crucified. He is risen! He is
not here. See the place where they
laid Him.
So go, tell His Disciples - and Peter -
that He is going before you into
Galilee; there you will see Him, as He
said to you.
And they went out quickly and fled
from the Tomb, trembling and
amazed. And they said nothing to
anyone, for they were afraid.
