Give rest, O Lord, to the soul of Thy murdered Slave, the Emperor Paul I, and by his prayers grant us in our present days of deception and fear wisdom in our deeds, patience in our sufferings and salvation of our souls with Thee.

Look down, O Lord, at Thy faithful intercessor for all small, poor and deprived ones, the Emperor Paul I,

and by his holy prayers grant, O Lord, speedy and true help to all who through him are begging it of Thee,

O Our God.
