Remember You Will Die Shakespearean Woodcut Design No. 1 | Orthodox Christian Art Poster

This day stimulates our eyes to weeping, our hands to gestures of woe, and our mouth to lamentation:

Lord! Be Thou my comforter!

This day invites very many to shed tears, for whoever enters or departs, his mouth is full of morning:

May we be consoled by Thy goodness!

This day makes void the covenant of espousals, and in place of a bridal chamber prepares a sepulcher:

Let them rejoice at Thy marriage feast!

This day dismisses the body from life, and instead of sweet perfumes it is anointed with clay:

Let us be gladdened with celestial fragrance!

The day of death is a bitter day, it causes all to weep and moves everyone to sadness:

Lord, may we see Thy day!

+ St Ephraim the Syrian
