Πρόδρομε κήρυξ τοῦ φωτὸς και λύχνε τοῦ ἡλίου | |
Βλάστημα θεοφύτευτον, τῆς χάριτος ὁ μύστης. | |
Τῶν προφητῶν ὑπέρτερος καὶ τῶν ἁγίων δόξα, | |
Ὁ θαυμαστὸς ἱερουργὸς τῆς ἀπροσίτου δόξης: | |
Ὁ τὴν λατρείαν πιστευθείς, τοῦ φρικτοῦ μυστηρίου, | |
Ὁ τὸν πατέρα καὶ Υἱὸν καὶ τὸ ἅγιον Πνεῦμα | |
Ἐωρακῶς σοῖς ὄμμασιν, καὶ τῆς φωνῆς ἀκούσας | |
Συμμαρτυρούσης τὸν Χριστὸν ὑιὸν ἠγαπημένον | |
Σὺ ἱερουργεῖς Πρόδρομε ἐπιτελῶν τὴν χάριν | |
Καὶ μεσιτεύων ἄριστα τῆς χάριτος καὶ νόμου. | |
ὡς οὖν ἀξίως εἴληφας παρὰ τοῦ σοῦ δεσπότου | |
Τὰς ἀντιδόσεις καὶ ἀμειβὰς, σῶν πόνων καὶ καριάτων | |
Ῥύστην εὑρεῖν σε ἡ ἐμὴ ψυχὴ ἀθλία μακρῷ | |
Καὶ τῶν αἰσχρῶν ἐκφεύξεται, τῶν δὲ ἐσθλῶν ἐμμένειν. | |
Ναὶ χαριτώνυμε αἰτῶ, ἀνάξιος τυγχάνων | |
Καὶ διὰ σου ἐπιτυχεῖν βασιλείας τῆς ἄνω. |

Versus in Praecursorem Praecursor, lucis praeco, et solis orientis nuncio, Coelitus satum germen, et divina initiate gratia, Prophetarum ultime, Sanctorumque decus, Admirandae inaccessibilis gloriae minister Qui cultum confirmans tremendi mysterii, Patrem, et Filium, sanctumque Spiritum Propriis intueri oculis meruisti, nec non audire vocem, Christum dilectum filium contestantem Tu sacer Praecursor fer auxilium, Et divinae gratiae dona, quibus legem impleamus impetra. Quoniam igitur digman a Domino accepisti Tuorum laborum, curarunique mercedem, ac retributionem, Liberatorem inveniat te miserrima valde anima mea, Ut malos effugiat, et cum bonis conversetur. In enixis precibus, gratissime, postulo, licet indignus; Et fac, ut per te Coelorum regnum assequar. |
