The Sunflower

Published in a somewhat amended form, but still in Latin, by St. John of Tobolsk (1651-1715). One year prior to his death the saint published the first Slavonic language edition. In 1890 an edition was published in Russian by the print shop of the Kiev Dormition Lavra. The English language edition presented here was translated from the 1890 Kiev text by Dn Nicholas Kotar and then further amended by the editorial team of the Holy Trinity Monastery.
