“ The Priest.⁠ O God, our God, who didst send forth the heavenly Bread, the food of all the world, our Lord and God Jesus Christ, for a Saviour and Redeemer and Benefactor, to bless and hallow us: Do Thou bless this offering, and receive it at Thine heavenly altar. Remember, as Thou art good and the lover of men, those who offer it, and them for whom it is offered; and keep us blameless in the celebration of Thy divine mysteries. For hallowed and glorified be Thine honourable and exalted Name, the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Ghost, now, and ever, and to the ages of ages. ”

“ No one bound by fleshly desires and pleasures is worthy to approach, or draw nigh, or to minister to Thee, O King of Glory, for to serve Thee, is a great and fearful thing, even to the heavenly powers themselves. Nevertheless, through Thine unspeakable and infinite love to man, Thou hast in reality and in truth become man, and hast ordained Thyself our High Priest, and hast delivered to us the celebration of this sacramental and bloodless sacrifice, as Lord of all, for Thou only, O Lord our God, reignest over things in heaven, and things on earth, sitting on the throne of Cherubim ”

“ Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord of Sabaoth: heaven and earth are full of Thy glory; Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is He who cometh in the name of the Lord: Hosanna in the highest.
Then the Deacon having taken the asterisk from off the holy Diskos, makes the sign of the cross over it, and having kissed it, he placeth it on one side. Then, returning to the right-hand side of the Priest, and taking the fan, he gently agitates it over the holy gifts, with all respect and attention, in order to hinder the flies and other insects from approaching. If there be no fan, he must use the veil. ”

“ Judge them, O God, let them fall from their counsels, after the fulness of their ungodliness cast them out, for they have rebelled against Thee, O Lord, and let all them that trust in Thee rejoice; they shall be glad for ever, and Thou wilt dwell in them, and they that love Thy Name shall exult in Thee. ”

“ Who for us men, and for our salvation came down from heaven, and was incarnate of the Holy Ghost and the Virgin Mary,—and was made man.
Was crucified also for us under Pontius Pilate, and suffered and was buried.
And rose again the third day according to the Scriptures.
And ascended into heaven, and sitteth at the right hand of the Father.
And shall come again with glory to judge both the quick and the dead, of whose kingdom there is no end. ”

“ The Priest shall place the four particles of the Holy Lamb upon the Diskos cross wise in the following manner: IC at the top of the Diskos towards the east: XC underneath, towards the west; NI towards the north; and KA towards the south.
The particle IC he shall place in the holy Chalice; the particle XC shall be subdvided for the communion of the Priests and Deacons who officiate; and the other two particles NI and KA shall be divided into as many portions as there are communicants. ”
