Hymn from 6th Hour of Friday

I realize I haven't posted anything in a while (usual excuse, rather busy). Anyway, I have made progress in terms of translations though. I'm almost done with the last office of Friday, after which I'll post all of Friday. This leaves only Saturday as the last office to be translated.

Aside from the progress update, I'd like to post a hymn from the 6th hour in an extended version, which can be found below.

Friday Ramsho

Friday Ramsho is, as most Ramsho offices, concerned with judgment, the eschaton and obtaining mercy. The particular bit I would like to focus on, however, is the mazmooro which does not directly deal with the main theme of judgment.

Excerpt from Holy Cross Hoosoyo

While this blog is specifically for the Ordinary, my curiosity leads me to the Fenqitho. This season is that of the Holy Cross, and the Fenqitho contains propers for this feast which was celebrated on the 14th, and will continue to be commemorated in this season until the new Church year begins in November. I translated a little excerpt from the Holy Cross Safro, which I've added below with a little more commentary.
