Troparion of Ss Sergius and Bacchus Tone 1

In contest you were victorious warriors of the Trinity/ and an illustrious pair of martyrs,/ Sergius godly champion, and Bacchus noble athlete./ In the radiancy of your glory you shelter those who cry:/ Glory to Him Who has strengthened you; glory to Him Who has crowned you;/ glory to Him Who through you works healings for all.

Troparion of St. Cynog Tone 4

Spurred on by their impiety,/ God-hating barbarians sought to destroy thee, O holy Cynog,/ but by death thou didst gain the victory./ Pray for us, that we too may triumph over evil by faithfulness unto the end,/ that we may be granted great mercy.

Troparion of St. Dubtach, Hierarch Tone 1

Compassionate pastor and inspired teacher of Armagh's flock, O Hierarch Dubtach,/ thou art a model of piety for both the pastors and the laity of Christ's holy Church./ Intercede with Christ our God that we may be given grace to emulate thee/ in bringing others to Him that we all may be saved.

Kontakion of Ss Sergius and Bacchus Tone 3

Let us gather and crown with praises/ the noble martyrs and brothers in the Faith,/ Sergius the warrior of the Trinity/ and Bacchus who with him in tortures persevered in praising Christ/ the Prizegiver and Creator of all.
