TONE 3

Devout Hilarion, when Thou received the Tri-solar Radiance with Brilliant Light, then like a perceptible brightly shining sun Thou moved over the earth, unto all dispersing Holy Sunbeams of Thy Miracles. Thus the recipients of Thy Benefactions, who had enjoyed the Healing Thou performed on them, O Godly-minded Father, and who obtained by Thy Sacred Teachings, Salvation, were proclaiming that Thou art a Prophet, Worker of Miracles, and a Divinely Inspired Saint. are those who fear the Lord; they will delight exceedingly in His Commandments. Thou passed beond delights of life and all things apparent, O devout Hilarion, and by Grace passed over to things immovable and perceived by the mind, Thou conversed then purely with the only absolutely pure, because of sharpness of intellect and purity of soul; and although Thou were material Thou lived like an Angel, O Holy One. Now that Thou art standing beside the Master Christ, the Lord of all, will Thou Entreat Him with confidence, praying that He Save our souls.
