_Now if at the same time they desire to be crowned, they go into the temple with burning tapers, preceded by the priest with the censer, and singing psalm cxxvii thus. And the people say after each verse,_ _Glory to thee, O our God, glory to thee._ Blessed are all they that fear the Lord. _Glory to thee, O our God, glory to thee._ They that walk in his ways. _Glory to thee, O our God, glory to thee._ Thou shalt eat the fruit of thy labours. _Glory to thee, O our God, glory to thee._ Blessed art thou, and it shall be well with thee. _Glory to thee, O our God, glory to thee._ Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine on the gables of thine house. _Glory to thee, O our God, glory to thee._ Thy sons shall be as newly-planted olive trees round about thy table. _Glory to thee, O our God, glory to thee._ Lo, thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the Lord. _Glory to thee, O our God, glory to thee._ The Lord shall bless thee out of Sion, and thou shalt see the good things of Jerusalem all the days of thy life. _Glory to thee, O our God, glory to thee._ And thou shalt see thy son’s sons: peace be upon Israel. _Glory to thee, O our God, glory to thee._ _After this the priest saith a word of instruction, telling them what is the mystery of marriage, and how in marriage they have to live acceptably unto God, and honourably. And after the conclusion of this, the priest interrogateth the bridegroom, saying,_ Hast thou, _name_, a good and unconstrained will, and a firm intention to take unto thyself this woman, _name_, whom here thou seest before thee? _And the bridegroom answereth, saying_, I have, reverend father. _The priest again_, Thou hast not vowed thyself to another bride? _Bridegroom._ I have not vowed myself, reverend father. _And straightway the priest, regarding the bride, interrogateth her, saying_, Hast thou a good and unconstrained will, and a firm intention to take unto thyself this man, _name_, whom thou seest here before thee? _And the bride answereth, saying_, I have, reverend father. _The priest again_, Thou hast not vowed thyself to another man? _And the bride answereth_, I have not vowed myself, reverend father. _Then the deacon saith_, Bless, master. _Priest._ Blessed be the kingdom.... _Choir._ Amen. _Deacon, the ectenia._ In peace let us pray to the Lord. For the peace that is from above.... For the peace of the whole world.... For this holy temple.... For the Most Holy Governing Synod. For our Most Pious.... For the servants of God, _name_, _name_, who are now being conjoined to one another in the community of marriage, and for their salvation, let us pray to the Lord. That this marriage may be blessed as was that in Cana of Galilee, let us pray to the Lord. That there may be vouchsafed unto them chastity, and fruit of the womb for their benefit, let us pray to the Lord. That they may be rejoiced in the beholding of sons and daughters, let us pray to the Lord.
