| στίχοι ἰαμβικοὶ εἰς τὸν ἅγιον Διονύσιον ἀρεοπαγίτην Χριστοφόρου πατρικίου τοῦ μιτυληναίου | |
| Ἐγώ, Διονύσιε, τολμῶ καὶ λέγειν | |
| ὡς οὐκ ἐπλάσθης ἐν γυναικὸς κοιλίᾳ, | |
| ἀλλ᾽ ἀγγέλοις μάλιστα συντεταγμένος | |
| ἄνωθεν ἦλθες ἐκ πόλου, φύσις ξένη, | |
| βροτοὺς ἀπαγγέλουσα πάντα πρὸς μέρος | |
| τὰ τῶν ἀΰλων ταγμάτων ὅπωσχει. | |
| οὕτω γινώσκεις τὰς ἀΰλους οὐσίας· | |
| οὕτω θεωρεῖς ἐνθέους θεωρίας· | |
| οὕτω θεωρεῖς τὰς φύσεις τῶν ἀγγέλων· | |
| οὕτω — τὸ μεῖζον — ἄγγελος σὺ τὴν φύσιν. |
