( ῾Ρανάτωσαν ἡμῖν ἄνωθεν ) 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.)
