O my soul, magnify her who is greater in honor and in glory than the armies of heaven.I see here a strange and paradoxical mystery. For, behold, the grotto is heaven; cherubic throne is the Virgin; the manger a grand space in which Christ our God the uncontainable reclined as a babe; Whom in ex- tolling do we magnify. — Ode IX of the First Canon of Christmas
