Theotokia and Dogmatika for all 8 tones

[digenes]

Unfortunately the Jordanville prayer book only has the Troparia and Kontakia for the 8 tones, and not the Theotokia and Dogmatika.  I tried looking for them online but wasn't too successful.  Can anyone point me to a website that contains the Theotokia and Dogmatika for the 8 tones, or if you have the text, please post it.  Thanks.

Can anyone point me to a website that contains the Theotokia and Dogmatika for the 8 tones

Which ones are you looking for? There are many hymns that can be classified as Theotokia. I think what you might looking for is the Doxastikon. All Dogmatika are Doxastika but not all Doxastika are Dogmatika. The Dogmatika are the Doxastika for Saturday evening Little Vespers. I don't know of any parish that serves this service so I don't know why you would need all the Dogmatika but you will find whatever you are looking for at this website... http://www.anastasis.org.uk/liturgic.htm

Are you looking for the Resurrectional Theotokia in all 8 tones which are sung after the Apolytikia of the Resurrection?  Such as:

Tone 1:  When Gabriel announced to thee, “Rejoice!”, O Virgin, /

the Master of all became incarnate within thee, the holy tabernacle, at his cry, /

as the righteous David said. /

Thou wast shown to be more spacious than the heavens, /

having borne thy Creator.  /

Glory to Him Who made His abode within thee!  /

Glory to Him Who came forth from thee!  //

Glory to Him Who hath set us free by thy birthgiving.

The rest can be found here:  http://www.saintjonah.org/rub/theotokia.htm

An excellent source:  OCA - Music Downloads

Scroll down a bit to where you see "Services of the Weekly Cycle (Oktoechos)".  Music is of the Russian Obikhod (common chant) arranged by L'vov/Bakhmetev.  I believe you'll find much, though not all of what you're looking for there.  I will also make it my project to post all the hymnography you seek on this thread over the next couple of days.  Shouldn't take me much time.

[PeterTheAleut]

Tone 1

Dogmatikon
Let us praise the Virgin Mary:
The Gate of Heaven from whom the Lord came forth;
The greatest glory of the world;
The beauty of the faithful, the hymn of the heavenly hosts.
She was born of mankind but gave birth to God.
She was revealed as heaven itself, the very temple of God on earth.
The ancient enmity is destroyed in her:
She commenced peace; she opened the Kingdom.
Our faith is made firm as we look upon her.
Our defender is the Lord whom she bore.
Take courage, O God's people, take heart--
Christ will trample down the foe
Since He is all-powerful.

Theotokion at the Apostikha
Behold, Isaiah's prophecy was fulfilled:
The Virgin gave birth, yet remained a virgin.
By being born of her, He renews and restores the nature He created.
Therefore, O Theotokos, do not despise the entreaties we make to you.
Since you carried in your arms the Compassionate One,
Have compassion on your servants,
And pray that our souls may be saved.

Resurrectional Dismissal Theotokion
When Gabriel announced to you, "Rejoice," O Virgin,
With that word the Master of all became incarnate in you, the Holy Ark.
As the righteous David said,
You were revealed as being more spacious than the heavens, having borne your Creator.
Glory to Him Who took His abode in you!
Glory to Him Who came forth from you!
Glory to Him Who freed us by your birthgiving!

[PeterTheAleut]

Tone 2

Dogmatikon
The shadow of the law passed and faded away,
At the coming of the light of divine grace.
Though the flames raged on, the bush remained unconsumed,
So the Virgin gave birth to her Son, yet remained a virgin as before.
Where once was a pillar of fire
Now the Sun of Justice shines forth.
Where Moses once delivered, now Christ is the Redeemer of all.

Theotokion at the Apostikha
A new miracle surpasses all ancient miracles:
Who has ever heard of a mother who gave birth without the seed of any man?
Who has ever heard of a creature carrying in her arms her Creator?
God Himself has willed this birth.
Since you carried Him, as an infant, in your arms, O most pure one,
And since you possess His special favor as His mother;
Do not cease to pray for us who honor you,
The He may be bountiful and save us all!

Resurrectional Dismissal Theotokion
All beyond thought, all most-glorious
Are your mysteries, O Theotokos!
Sealed in purity and preserved in virginity,
You were revealed as the true Mother,
For you gave birth to the true God.
Entreat Him that our souls may be saved.

[PeterTheAleut]

Tone 3

Dogmatikon
How can we not be awestruck with wonder
At your mystical birthgiving, O exalted Mother?
The loving embrace of a man, the most intimate,
Never touched you, O pure, Ever-Virgin.
The Son who was begotten of the Father eternally
Was born in the flesh when the fullness of time had come, O Lady.
And in no way were His perfect natures changed at all,
Not diminished, confused, distorted, or divided.
They remained whole and entire, fully preserved;
All things proper to each were kept completely intact.
Entreat Him to save the souls, O Lady, Virgin and Mother,
Of those who, in orthodox manner, confess you:
O Theotokos.

Theotokion at the Apostikha
In accord with the will of the Father, O Theotokos,
You conceived the Son of God of the Holy Spirit without the seed of man.
He was begotten of the Father without a mother before the beginning of time;
And now, for our sake, He was born of you without a father.
Never cease to entreat Him to deliver us from harm!

Resurrectional Dismissal Theotokion
We praise you as the Mediatrix of our salvation,
O Theotokos Virgin.
For your Son, our God, Who took flesh from you
Accepted the Passion on the Cross,
Delivering us from corruption as the Lover of Mankind.

[PeterTheAleut]

Tone 4

Dogmatikon
Through you, O Virgin,
David the Prophet was an ancestor of the Lord.
He foretold in psalms the great things done for you:
"At Your right hand, O Lord, stands the queen."
And so, without human seed, God was willing to born of you,
Thus revealing your role as intercessor and life-giving mother.
Your Son came to restore in us God's image corrupted by the passions.
He saved the stray sheep, wandering lost in the mountains far from home.
He bore it on His shoulders to His Father,
And, in His tender mercy, He gave it a place among the Powers of Heaven on high.
Thus Christ has saved the world, O Theotokos.

Theotokion at the Apostikha
Behold the supplications of your devoted servants, O Pure One!
For you crush the savage assaults that beset us,
Driving from us all trouble and distress.
You are a steadfast, sure and firm anchor for us.
Do not let us blush with shame when we call on you, O Lady,
For we call on you to intercede for us.
Quickly hear us who faithfully cry out to you:
Rejoice, O Lady, our help and our joy and haven of safety for our souls.

Resurrectional Dismissal Theotokion
The mystery hidden from the ages
And unknown even to the angels,
Through you, O Theotokos,
God has revealed to those on earth.
For He Who became incarnate,
In a union without confusion,
Voluntarily accepted the Cross for us
By which He resurrected the first created man
And He saved our souls from death.

[PeterTheAleut]

Tone 5

Dogmatikon
At the sea of reeds long ago
The Virgin Bride was prefigured mystically.
There, Moses spoke out, parting waves to left and right;
Here, Gabriel bears Mary the tidings ever so strange.
There, Israel crossed the sea dry-shod;
Here, the Virgin gives birth to Christ without the seed of man.
After Israel's passage, the sea remained impassible;
After Emmanuel's birth, Mary remains a virgin.
O Ever-existing God, Who now come to us as a man;
Have mercy on us!

Theotokion at the Apostikha
You are the Temple of God, O Holy Virgin,
The gate, the palace, and the very throne of Heaven's King.
From you the Sun of Justice rose.
He enlightens those held in darkness.
He is the Savior of those created in His image and likeness.
O All-praised Lady, as His mother, be bold for us now:
Pray unceasingly that our souls may be saved!

Resurrectional Dismissal Theotokion
Rejoice, O Impassible Gate of the Lord!
Rejoice, O Wall and Protection of those who run to you!
Rejoice, O unshakable Refuge!
O You who knew not wedlock,
Who gave birth in the flesh to your Creator and God:
Do not cease to pray for those who praise you,
Venerating your birthgiving.

[PeterTheAleut]

Tone 6

Dogmatikon
Who will not bless you, O Most-Holy Virgin?
Who will not sing of your most pure childbearing?
The Only-Begotten Son shone from the Father long before time,
Then He came forth from you, O Theotokos, in a manner that defies human words.
He is God by nature; He is man for our sake.
He is not two Persons, but One known in two distinct natures.
Therefore, O Pure and All-Blessed Lady,
Entreat Him to have mercy on our souls!

Theotokion at the Apostikha
Christ Jesus, our Maker, Redeemer, and Lord
Was born of you, O Most-Pure Virgin.
By accepting our nature, He freed Adam from his ancient curse.
We ceaselessly magnify you as Theotokos:
Rejoice, O Joy of the Heavens!
Rejoice, O Lady!
You protect us and intercede for the salvation of our souls.

Resurrectional Dismissal Theotokion
You Who called Your mother blessed,
Came of Your own will to the Passion.
For having shone on the Cross, desiring to recall Adam,
You said to the angels:
"Rejoice with Me, for the lost coin has been found."
O You Who wisely ordered all things, O our God, glory to You!

[PeterTheAleut]

Tone 7

Dogmatikon
We are unable to speak of your most wonderful childbearing, O Theotokos,
For the order of nature has been overruled by God.
Your motherhood has been revealed to be above nature's normal course,
And you remained a virgin: something beyond all reason and understanding.
The manner in which you conceived was most glorious, O Theotokos!
The manner in which you gave birth is beyond all thought, O Virgin!
So, we proclaim you to be the Mother of God,
And we devoutly ask you,
"Beseech your Son to save our souls!"

Theotokion at the Apostikha
Fleeing to your protection, O Precious Lady,
We who dwell on earth cry out to you with hope, O Theotokos:
"Rescue us from our countless sins,
And pray that our souls may be saved!"

Resurrectional Dismissal Theotokion
As you are the Treasury of our Resurrection,
Lead up from the pit and abyss of transgressions
Us who have put our hope in you, O All-praised One.
For you who bore our salvation have saved us guilty of sin.
You who before birthgiving were a virgin, and in birthgiving were a virgin,
Again after giving birth remained still a virgin.

[PeterTheAleut]

Tone 8

Dogmatikon
Heaven's great King,
Move by His love for all mankind,
Revealed Himself here on earth and dwelt with us.
From the Virgin Mary He assumed His flesh,
And from her He came forth: God's incarnate Son!
He is the One and Only-Begotten Son,
And with two natures He is yet one Person.
We confess and proclaim
That He is Christ, our Lord and God:
Perfectly Divine and yet perfectly Man.
O Unwedded Bride and Mother, entreat Him to have mercy on us.

Theotokion at the Apostikha
O Most-pure Virgin,
You gave flesh to God in a way beyond our understanding!
O Mother of God, the Most High,
Receive the prayers and entreaties of your servants;
Obtain for us the remission of our sins.
Hear our cries, and pray that our souls may be saved.

Resurrectional Dismissal Theotokion
For our sake You were born of the Virgin,
And having endured the crucifixion, O Good One,
You destroyed death by death.
Revealing the Resurrection, as God, do not despise the work of Your hand.
Reveal Your love for mankind, O Merciful One.
Accept the Theotokos who bore You and who is praying for us,
And save the despairing people, O our Savior.

[PeterTheAleut]

There.  All done.  Do I get a cookie?

[ytterbiumanalyst]

Definitely. Thank you very much for posting all that.

[PeterTheAleut]

DARN!   If those chocolate chips are made of milk chocolate, I can't eat that cookie 'til Christmas.  Thanks for the thought, though.

[digenes]

Thanks a lot!

[PeterTheAleut]

Thanks a lot!

Glad I could be of help to you.
