“You have come down in the womb of the Virgin as rain on the hair, Christ, and as drops that drops on the earth; the Ethiopians, the people of Tarshish, the islands of Arabia, Sheba, and Media, the rulers of all the earth, have bowed down before you, Saviour, glory to your power. ”
(Troparium of the ode 4 of Cosma of the canon of December 25th tone 1)
