ἀφ’ ἧς δραξάμενον τὸν ἱερέα ὅλῃ τῇ δρακί, τὸ δ’ ἐστὶ πάσαις ταῖς διανοίας λαβαῖς, πλήρη τὴν ὅλην ψυχὴν εἱλικρινεστάτων καὶ καθαρωτάτων δογμάτων γενομένην αὐτὴν ὡς ἱερεῖον τὸ κάλλιστον ἀνάγειν προστέτακται, πίονα καὶ λιπῶσαν, θείῳ φωτὶ χαίρουσαν καὶ ταῖς ἀπὸ δικαιοσύνης καὶ τῶν ἄλλων ἀρετῶν ἀναδιδομέναις καταπνεομένην αὔραις, ὡς εὐωδέστατον καὶ προσηνέστατον ἀεὶ καρποῦσθαι βίον· τὸ γὰρ ἔλαιον καὶ ὁ λιβανωτός, ὧν ἐπιδράττεται σὺν τοῖς λευκοπύροις ὁ ἱερεύς, ταῦτα αἰνίττεται.
