ΕΟΡΤΑΣΤΙΚΗ. Παρέσχεν ἡμῖν ὁ φιλάνθρωπος Δεσπότης μετὰ τῆς τοῦ φιλοχρίστου λαοῦ προθυμίας ἐπιτελέσαι τὴν θείαν καὶ σωτήριον ἑορτὴν καὶ τοὺς τῆς πνευματικῆς ὠφελείας ἐξ αὐτῆς τρυγῆσαι καρπούς. Τὴν περὶ ἡμᾶς τοίνυν διάθεσιν τῆς σῆς εὐλαβείας εἰδώς, δῆλον αὐτῇ διὰ γραμμάτων τοῦτο ποιῶ. Ἥδονται γὰρ οἱ εὖ περί τινας διακείμενοι, ὅταν τι περὶ αὐτῶν θυμῆρες ἀκούσωσιν.
