	Ὑψιμέδων μάκαρ· υἱέος ἀφθίτου γέννητωρ,
	Καὶ πνεῦμʹ ἰσοκλεές· εἷς γε θεὸς τὰ τρία,
	Ὃς τῆς ἡμετέρης ταμίης φύτλης ἐπέοργας
	Καὶ σοφίης πάροχος εὐρύθμου τε λόγου.
	Γρηγορίου μεγάλοιο λιτησι τεοῦ ἱερῆος
	Οὗ χάρις ἐκ χειλῶν προύρχεται οἷα μέλι
	Καὶ τε νοήματος ἐν κραδίη βάθος απλε vacuum τον
	Πᾶσι δʹ ἐνιχθονίοις οὔνομα σεῖο τρανοῖ
	αζυγα βασιλειον ἀριτῆρα δειλήμοσιν ἐν παθέεσσι
	Λυγρῶς τειρόμενον ἐνδυκέως σωζε
	Σὴν ἐπαρείγων οἷα χειρα πανσθενέα κρατερήν τε
	καὶ γὰρ ἔτευξε πόθῳ εὔφρονα τήνδε βύβλον.
