Verse. And the mercy of the Lord shall endure to ages.

And to each verse the exapostilarion.

Then, Glory. Both now.

Now have I chosen the maiden Mother of God; for Christ, redeemer of all, was born of her: glory to thee, O Lord.

And straightway the priest exclaimeth,

For holy art thou, O our God, and thou restest on the Saints, and to thee we ascribe glory, to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Ghost, now and ever, and to ages of ages.

Choir. Amen. And they sing, Holy God....

Prokimenon, tone vi.

Blessed is the way in which thou goest to-day, O soul....

Verse. Return, O my soul, unto thy rest.
