At both vespers, on “My soul magnifies,” the antiphon “Blessed Mother of God Mary, ever-present Virgin, church of the Lord, sanctuary of the Holy Spirit, you alone were pleasing to our Lord Jesus Christ, alleluia.” Prayer (at Vespers and Liturgy): “God, Who willed that the blessed Mary, ever-virgin, the abode of the Holy Spirit, should be presented in the church today, grant that through Her intercession we may be worthy to appear in the church of Thy glory. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Your Son, Who lives and reigns with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit, God.” At Vespers there is an antiphon and a prayer to Saint November 20 (Philip of Valois).
