| After passing through the holy doors, the priest sets the chalice on the Holy Table, then he takes the diskarion from the deacon and, in like manner, sets it on the Holy Table to the left of the chalice. He removes the small veils from the diskarion and chalice, and lays them to one side on the Holy Table. Then he takes the large veil, called the aer, from the shoulder of the deacon, censes the aer above the censer and covers the holy gifts, saying: The noble Joseph … Then, taking the censer from the hands of the deacon, he censes the holy gifts in three strokes, saying: Deal favorably, 0 Lord, … While this is being said the holy doors are closed; The candle bearers bow together before the royal doors and return to their places. Having returned the censer, the priest lets his phelonion hang freely and, with bowed head, says to the deacon: Remember me, brother and fellow-celebrant. The deacon says to him: May the Lord God remember your priesthood … Then the priest: Pray for me my fellow-celebrant. Then the deacon also bows his head and, holding his orarion with three fingers of his right hand, says to the priest: The Holy Spirit shall come upon you … The priest: May the Spirit Himself join with us … And the deacon says to the priest: Remember me, holy Master. The priest: May the Lord God remember you … The deacon: Amen. |
