(Said on July 19; printed in the Moscow and Provincial Vedas. 1853)
The presence of Your Majesty here is a joyful evidence for us that fate, which gave you another fatherland, so that you and your children could decorate and strengthen the throne there, did not separate your heart from your first Fatherland.
We can testify that Orthodox Russia does not cease to assimilate you to itself. She offers prayers for you every day.
And now, devoted to its Tsar, and through Him and the entire Royal family, this ancient throne city with a voice of joy calls upon you blessings from the All-Good and All-Bounteous, from Him all the Fatherland in heaven and on earth is named.
