	εὐαγγελιστῶν τοὺς θεοπνεύστους λόγους
	τομαῖς διαιρεθέντ(ας) εὐεπιβόλοις·
	καὶ τῆδε βίβλω τεχνικ(ῶς) ἡρμωσμένους·
	ἅπας ἀκούων κ(αὶ) τρυφῶν καθημέραν·
	ἑστῶσιν ὠσὶ· τοὺς ὑπεκφωνουμένους·
	ἰωάννην θαύμαζε τῆς εὐβουλίας·
	σπούδασμα πολλοῖς οὐ πρὶν ἐσπουδασμ(ένον)·
	καὶ σπουδάσαντα συντόνω προθυμία·
	καὶ καλλιεργήσαντα κόσμοις ποικίλ(οις)·
	τοὺς μὲν ξενίζει τοὺς ὁρῶντ(ας) ὡς ἔχει·
	τοῖς τοῦ θ(εο)ῦ (δὲ) ῥήμασι ψυχοτρόφοις·
	εὐεργετεῖ ἅπαντας ἀκροωμένους·
