A renowned bishop shines in heaven, the ruddy star
of the doctors sparkles, scattering the unwavering light of faith throughout
the whole world. O heavenly Zion, gladly
sing praises to the God of your salvation, for your illustrious citizen, who in
a wondrous way, filled with light, has exercised self-control. This man guards
and strengthens the holy faith and powerfully subdues the weapons of error, he
repels and washes away the disreputable ways of living by dogmatic clarity.
You, who were a careful watchman over the flock of Christ, a shining example
for the clergy and the monks alike, ever pray for us before the goodly face of
God. Laud, honor and power to the
blessed Trinity, whose depths you lovingly and enthusiastically searched out on
earth and whose brilliant light you now possess among the stars. Amen.
