At Thy right hand
stood the queen, arrayed in a vesture of in-woven gold, adorned with various
colors,as the Psalmist and
Prophet says of [the Most Holy Theotokos] (Ps.
44[45]:8). And you should take this garment interwoven
with gold to mean her divinely radiant body --- adorned with every type of
virtue. For, at present, she is the
only one who has a place in heaven with her divinely glorified body in the
company of her Son. Earth, the grave and death could not ultimately
detain her life-giving body, which has held God and been a more beloved
habitation for Him than heaven and the heaven of heavens.
