Prayer-Book (Euchologion)

St Sarapion of Thmuis, tr. Wordsworth, 1899

Chapter 2

[G. The Lord’s prayer?]
[The manual acts and communion.]
2. After the [Lord’s?] prayer (comes) the fraction, and in the fraction a prayer.

Count us worthy of this communion also, O God of truth, and make our bodies to contain purity (χωρῆσαι ἁγνείαν) and our souls prudence and knowledge. And make us wise, O God of compassions, by the participation of the body and the blood, because through thy only-begotten to thee (is) the glory and the strength in holy Spirit, now and to all the ages of the ages. Amen.
