Πέρας εἴληφεν ἡ τοῦ κλήμακος δέλτος·
πολλὴν κομόντα | τέρψεως εὐμορφία·
μᾶλλον δὲ συγχώρη(ν) κ(αὶ) εὐεξίαν·

τρίβον δʹ ἀνοίγει τῆς | θείας μετανοί(ας)·
καὶ τοὺς θυμηρῶς ταύτ(ην) ἀσπαζομέν(ους)·
εἰς οὐ|ρανίαν ἀπόλαυσιν εἰσάγει·
δια κ(ύριο)ν οἱ ταύ(την) διελθ(όν)τ(ες)·
λεοντίω | τλήμονι τ(ῶ) νοτ(α)ρ(ίῳ)
τῶ ἐξ ἰττα(ῶν) χῶρου καταγομένω
τῶ καὶ ξύσαντ(ι) τὸ ἡ|δὺ τοῦτο μέλο(ς)·
σὺν τ(ῶ) κτήτορι μοναχ(ῷ) (...)
