The Maternity of Holy Anna

The Prophets’ mystic predictions find fulfillment, for the holy mountain is established in the womb; the great majestic throne of the King is being readied; and the divine ladder hath been planted firm; on the earth, the place where God doth walk hath been prepared; the bush that burned not doth now begin to bud and sprout forth; and the myrrh-vessel of holiness doth now well forth to check the streams of barrenness of chaste Anna, the eldress of godly mind; let us all call her blessed, while extolling her with fervent faith.
