Above it stood the seraphims: each one had six wings; with twain he covered his face, and with twain he covered his feet, and with twain he did fly. And one cried unto another, and said, 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐲, 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐲, 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐲, is the Lord of hosts: the whole earth is full of his glory.

And the first beast was like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast was like a flying eagle. And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐲, 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐲, 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐲, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come.

Priest: '...We thank You also for this Liturgy, which You have deigned to receive from our hands, even though thousands of archangels and tens of thousands of angels stand around You, the Cherubim and Seraphim, six-winged, many-eyed, soaring aloft upon their wings, singing the 𝐡𝐲𝐦𝐧 𝐨𝐟 𝐯𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲, exclaiming, proclaiming, and saying:'

People: '𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐲, 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐲, 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐲, Lord Sabaoth, heaven and earth are filled with Your glory. Hosanna in the highest. Blessed is He Who comes in the name of the Lord. Hosanna in the highest.'
