talk about, this one is in vain. it’s all empty and you won’t take your luxurious princely chambers with you into the coffin, not gold, not diamonds, not what do you have an emerald? and you will take away only those good bodies that you managed to make here on earth, while you see the whole of god's light and even your evil deeds. so knowing before engaging in a worthy royal throne. we must serve the king of heaven went on to rule the principality, and the young before glory in the name of euphrosynenia took tonsure in monasticism most likely impressed him so much with the life of a christian saint. forgiveness of the alexandrian, that she, on her example, built her life of forgiveness of the alexandrian. she was a reasonable hallway , i wanted to marry, and she did not want to marry her was a marai. the only thing was to prove the holiness of the name of christ yes, numerology is such

a snot, and she went to men and a monastery, and she left her hair, and she crossed all the lads. i took for myself a fussy and moracht meat. so came to the monastery, and the men and the monastery before the holy pahomiya and took ours in russia. she goes the same way in a short time. saint euphrosyne, with the blessing of the bishop, or and moved to live in a keel. at the sophia cathedral in polotsk, here, free from prayer and contemplation, the monks spent hours rewriting sacred books. it was very hard work. long work. basically, the monks were engaged in this, in order to rewrite the book, even a page, it takes a lot of time, you need to make a lot of effort, so, of course, the work is very serious, nevertheless euphrosyne. she devoted herself, including to this work. once, in a dreamy vision, the monk appeared to an angel who indicated a holy place in the village

for lagging behind the virginal abode on the same night, the angel appeared to his bishop elijah. if she went, she went, took with her only one nun, books and bread, and came to the monastery. here is a number that she came to the monastery open field is not the truth. there was already a temple on foot ; and most importantly there was a monastery. why are we on stream a man, and here i called two paths and in russia alexandrian, and she and where the men have a monastery. the first thing i'm at work and she b-du. i am a new monastery for men and here are these monks of men, and not far from that , a stone church in honor of the most holy
