Let us praise the all-lauded and
noble bride of Christ, the godly Catherine, the guardian of Sinai and its
defense, who is also our support and succour and our help; for with the Holy
Spirit’s sword she hath silenced brilliantly the clever among the godless; and
being crowned as a Martyr, she now doth ask great mercy for us all.--Apolytikion of the Feast to the Prosomion "Let us Worship the Word", plagal tone 1
The Alexandrians’ city, bright
and godly, on thy remembrance keepeth festival in gladness, O august Martyr
Catherine, honoring thy contests, which thou didst endure courageously for
Christ God; and holding her head up high, she doth cry to thee: O much-suffering virgin maid, who in
celestial abodes art found with thy Creator now, rejoice, O Martyr most
marvelous.--3rd Kathisma at Orthros for the feast to the Prosomion "When the Bodiless Ones", plagal tone 4
Through her intercessions, O Lord Jesus Christ our God, may we be saved.
