"Being transformed by paradoxical and divine nourishment..."

St. Tryphon the Great Martyr and Unmercenary (Source)
  
Being transformed by paradoxical and divine nourishment*, you joined table with the Angels, O blessed one, and he who shepherded geese in the valley, has proceeded towards God, being granted the grace of healings, O Great Martyr Tryphon, to heal the afflictions and illnesses of mortals.
-Exaposteilarion for the feast of St. Tryphon the Great Martyr

*Note: The name "Tryphon" means "food" or "nourishment".
  
Through the prayers of our Holy Fathers, Lord Jesus Christ our God, have mercy on us and save us! Amen!
