The Elevation of the Life-Giving Cross

Ode 1
Tracing an up right line with his staff,Moses divided the Red Sea for Israel, which was travelling on foot,
and striking it a transverse blow, he brought the waters together over the chariots of Pharaoh, there by inscribing the invincible weapon of the Cross.
Wherefore, let us hymn Christ our God, for He hath been glorified.

Ode 9-Irmos of the 1st Canon
0 Theotokos, thou art a mystical paradise,which untilled, did put forth Christ, by Whom the life bearing tree of the Cross was planted.
Wherefore, venerating it as it is now raised a loft, we magnify thee.
