Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. Both now and ever, and unto the ages of ages. Amen. This is the day of Resurrection; let us be radiant for the festival, and let us embrace one another. Let us say, O brethren, even to those that hate us: Let us forgive all things on the Resurrection, and thus let us cry: O Christ is Risen from the dead! O Christ is Risen from the dead, trampling down death by death and upon those in the tombs bestowing life! -the Doxasticon and Troparion of Pascha |
