§ 7. "Repentant in my thoughts I call upon Thee, O Thou Physician who healest gratuitously, that as Thou didst create me out of nothing; so, in Thy grace, heal Thou my misdeeds, since I cannot attain unto salvation, even by my repentance, unless Thou dost help me." From the service appointed in the Khudhra for the third Wednesday of Lent.
§ 8. "O Thou just Judge who dost justify freely, unto Thee do I declare all my short-comings. Give me, therefore, whiteness of face on the day of judgment, through the mercies which sent Thee to our race, and have mercy upon me." From the collects at the end of the Khudhra.
