Menologion

 20th c. Greek icon by Nun Markella for St. John the Evang. Monastery, Patmos

Troparion of Ss Plato and Romanus Tone 1

The renowned pair of prizewinners glorified the Trinity./ They both fought valiantly and destroyed the enemy./ Glorious Plato and godly Romanus, pray for us to the Lover of mankind.

Troparion of St. Mawes Tone 8

Despite thy royal birth thou didst embrace the monastic life in infancy,/ O Father Mawes, boast of ascetics and banisher of snakes./ As we are blessed to have thy precious relics with us to this day,/ pray O Saint, that we may be worthy of Christ's mercy and that our souls may be saved.

Kontakion of St. Plato Tone 3

Thy holy memory gladdens the world/ and calls all to thy venerable church./ We are gathered there praising thy triumphs/ and cry out to thee with faith:/ Deliver thy flock, O Plato, from all evil.

Kontakion of St. Romanus Tone 4

Romanus, thou art a radiant star/ and the Church is illumined by thy contests./ She glorifies thy memory.
