Either give me my Lord or with me cry out: O Thou Who were among the dead and raised the dead: Glory to Thee!

Theotokos,

Thou art Mystical Paradise, for without husbandry Thou hast Blossomed Christ, by Whom the very Life-bearing Tree of the Cross in the earth has been planted. As it is now exalted, we adore Him thereby and Thee we Magnify!

Simon Peter arrived, following him, and he went into the Tomb; and he saw the linen Cloths lying there, and the Handkerchief that had been around His Head, not lying with the linen Cloths, but folded together in a place by itself. Tomb first, also went in; and he saw and believed. For as yet they did not know the Scripture - that He must Rise again from the dead.
