CHRIST the Lord, Whose holy name is as ointment poured out: Grant, we beseech Thee, that the ointment of Thy head may be poured down by Thee, so as to descend on the beard of Thy people, and come to the very edge of the garment of this mortal life; Who livest. and reignest with the Father and the Holy Ghost, ever one God, world without end. Amen (Oremus, 1925, p.36-37).
