	+ εὐαγγελιστῶν τοὺς θεοπνεύστους λόγους
	τόμοις διαιρεθέντας ἠκριβωμένως
	αὕτη βίβλος φέρουσα συντεταγμένους
	θαῦμα πρόκειται πᾶσιν ἐξηρημένον
	ἐκ τῆς γραφῆς ἅπαντας ἕλκον πρὸς θέαν
	ἐκ τῆς ἀρίστης ἐκλογῆς τε καὶ τέχνης
	τὸν ζῆλον ἐγκεντρίζον οἷς ἐστιν φύσις
	πρὸς ἔργα φιλότιμος εὐκλεῶν πόνων
	ἧς οἱ τρυφῶντες τὴν ἐπανθοῦσαν χάριν
	μεταγράφοντες ἢ λαλοῦντες ἠρέμα
	εὐχαῖς φιλοφρονεῖσθε τὸν τετευχότα
	ὡς δεσπότην πρωτουργὸν ὡς πᾶσι τρόποις
	ταύτην προθύμως κτώμενον κτῆμα ξένον.
