The Conception of St. John the Forerunner

THE DIVINELY-PREPARED LAMP OF THE ETERNAL LIGHT,

THE FRIEND OF THE BRIDEGROOM,

THE GREAT MORNING STAR OF THE SUN OF GLORY,

THE LIVING VOICE OF THE WORD OF GOD,

THE FORERUNNER OF THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD,//

IS NOW CONCEIVED AT THE ANNOUNCEMENT OF AN ARCHANGEL!

(Hymn from the Praises of Matins)
