(formerly occ/5386)
| + Ὦ πάνυ λαμπρὰ καὶ σοφή, τέκνον, φύσις, | |
| ἄγαλμα παντὸς ψυχικοῦ κάλλους γέμον, | |
| ἐν τοῖς ἀγαθῶν οὐ τελεσφόροις χρόνοις, | |
| ἐκ γῆς ἀνασχὼν τῷ χορῷ τῶν μακάρων· | |
| ἦλθες θεωρὸς τῶν σεμνῶν, οἴμοι, τόπων, | |
| ἐμοί τε πατρὶ δυστυχεῖ τιμὴν νέμων, | |
| τὸ συμμετασχεῖν καὶ πανυστάτων πόνων, | |
| καὶ ἡρπάγης, φεῦ, ἐξ ἐμῶν χειρῶν μέσων, | |
| καὶ πάνθ' ὁμοῦ λέλοιπας, ἐν οἷς εὐτύχεις, | |
| γονάς, τροφάς, παίδευσιν, ἐν λόγοις κράτος, | |
| καὶ παντοδαπῶν πλησμονὴν μαθημάτων, | |
| φρόνησιν, ἐμβρίθειαν ἠθῶν καὶ τρόπων, | |
| φρόνημα, βλέμμα, φθέγμα καὶ ποδῶν βάσιν, | |
| γέμοντα πρᾳότητος, ἡδονῆς πλέα, | |
| καὶ πᾶσαν ἁπλῶς ἠθικὴν συμμετρίαν· | |
| ἀφῆκας οἰκτρὰν μητέρα ῥακενδύτιν, | |
| σοὶ ζῶσαν, ἐμπνέουσαν ἐκ σοῦ γε μόνου, | |
| κἀμὲ πρὸς αὐτῇ, τληπαθῆ μητρὸς κάσιν. | |
| Αὔχημα δήπου τῆς βροτῶν θνητῆς τύχης, | |
| ὡς ὄχλον ἐξέρριψας, ὡς ἄχθος μέγα. | |
| Τὸν σύντροφόν σοι τοῦ Θεοῦ πιστὸν φόβον, | |
| λαβῶν ὁδηγὸν καὶ συνέκδημον μόνον, | |
| καὶ σωφρονικὴν ἐντελοῦς ζωὴν χρόνου· | |
| τετράκις ἠνύσθη γὰρ ἕκτος σοι κύκλος, | |
| Θεοῦ καλοῦντος, εὐσεβεῖ κλείεις τέλει. | |
| Καὶ νῦν ἀληθῶς εὐτυχεῖς ὁ γεννάδας, | |
| καὶ τοῖς ἀεὶ μένουσι τερπνοῖς ἐμπρέπεις· | |
| νῦν ζῇς ἀληθῶς, νῦν μετ' ἀνδρῶν ἐμφρόνων, | |
| ἐν ταῖς πατρικαῖς εὐπαθεῖς πανδαισίαις· | |
| σκιαὶ δὲ ἡμεῖς, καὶ παθῶν σαφὴς ὄχος, | |
| συγχαίρομέν σοι τῆς καλῆς μετοικίας· | |
| ζῶμεν δὲ λυγρῶς, φιλτάτου στερούμενοι· | |
| ἀλγεῖ δὲ καὶ πᾶς, ᾧ τἀγαθοῦ τις λόγος· | |
| ἀλλ' ὦ Θεοῦ δώρημα τῇ κλήσει πρεπον, | |
| ἔμπης συνέργου, πρὸς Θεὸν πρέσβυς ἔσο, | |
| κἂν μὴ γέγραψαι τοῖς στρατηγοῖς συγγράφῃ | |
| ἧλιξ γὰρ αὐτῶν, καὶ λαμπρὸς καὶ ὁπλίτης. | |
| Γεννάδιός σοι ταυτὶ δακρύων ᾄδω, | |
| ἀλιτρός, οἰκτρός, εὐτελὴς Θεοῦ λάτρις:~ |
