We supplicate You in spirit at this arrived hour of rest, lover of mankind, Spirit of God. When You renew the face of the earth and mankind again receives [their] spirits, adorn anew with radiant vesture our fallen asleep who were born of You through the holy font; through the supplications of the holy Mother of God (*Astuacacin*) and of all the righteous. We place the living image of Your immaculate Mother before Your ungrudging Lordship. When You come in the glory of the Father to judge the enemies of Your Cross, forgive our trespasses through the intercession of Your Mother and Virgin. We beseech You, Lord, protect us under the shadow of Your holy Cross. Make us also, Lord, partakers with Your holy Apostles, who were deemed worthy to behold You in Your Resurrection. Deem us worthy, Lord, to behold You at Your second coming. Blessing in the highest to the Sender.
