Rhanatosan Hemin Anothen
Rhanatosan Hemin Anothen
( ) is the beginning of the sixth ode by St. Joseph of the Studium, or the Hymnologist (q.v.), of which the following stanza is the translation of Neale:
Rain down, ye heav’ns, eternal bliss!
The cherub-cloud today
Bears Jesus where his Father is,
Along the starry way.
See Neale’s Hymns of the Eastern Ch. p. 229 sq. (B.P.)
