Troparion of the Martyrs Eulampius and Eulampia Tone 1

United by natural bonds/ you were of one soul and steadfast in contest,/ as divine kinsmen, Eulampius and Eulampia./ Since you have received crowns of honour save us by your prayers.

Troparion of St. Patrician Tone 1

Driven from the See in Strathclyde by the Saxon hordes,/ thou wast sheltered by the Manx people/ to whom thou didst preach the life-giving Gospel of Christ,/ O Hierarch Patrician./ In thy patience and love for all, remember those who now cry to thee/ and beseech Christ our God that He will save our souls.

Kontakion of the Martyrs Eulampius and Eulampia Tone 3

We honour the noble martyrs Eulampius and Eulampia,/ brother and sister according to the flesh./ They have put to shame the wiles of the enemy/ through the power of Christ the Crucified.
