The commanded secretly received in the mind, / in the blood of Joseph, with diligence, the Bodiless One appears, the verb is more unartificial: / bowed by the descent of Heaven, the whole is invariably contained in Thee, / Him and seeing in Your false dreams I have received the form of a slave, / I am horrified to call You // Rejoice, Unbrideless Bride.
* Canon of prayer to the Most Holy Theotokos.
