Χρυσογραφοῦσι δέλτον οἱ θεηγ[όροι]
ὃν ἡ τριφεγγὴσ τοῦ θεοῦ πανταρχία
διευκρινοῦσι τοὺς λόγους λεπτῇ θέᾳ·
καὶ τοῦ μεγίστου προδρόμου τοῦ δεσπότου
ὅθεν ψιλοῦντες τὴν βαθύγλωσσον χάριν
καὶ μαρτύρων δὲ τῶν θεοστεφῶν πάλιν,
ὧν εἷσ πέφυκε ψυχικῶσ θησαυρίσασ
ναὶ μὴν γένοιτο χριστὲ σῶτερ παντάναξ
(...) (...)(αις)
[δὶσ ἓξ θεοπτῶν τε]ττάρων τούτοισ ἅμα
νόων ἁπάντων τοῦ πόλου πυριπνόων
ἄμφω στομοῦνται πυρσομόρφως τὰς φράσεις,
αὐτῶν προφητῶν τοῦ παρόντος πυξίου
ἱστῶσι προῦπτον τοῖς σχολάζουσι πόθῳ,
καὶ τοῦ τεθέντοσ προσφόρωσ θεοῦ δόσισ
προφητικάσ τε πνευματοφθόγγουσ φράσεισ
λῖταισ ἀφύκτοισ τῆσ φαεσφόρου κόρησ
θεῖοι ναοὶ γὰρ τοῦ Θεοῦ πεφηνότες
καὶ τοῦ χοροῦ τε τῶν φυτητῶν τοῦ λόγου,
τὸ γράμμα λευκὸν, οὐ μέλαν τῷ πτυκτίῳ
θεοδωρήτου τοῦ σοφοῦ ἑρμενέωσ
τὴν βίβλον ἤπερ μαργάρων τοὺσ ἐντίμουσ
