(formerly occ/9707)

τὸ τετραπλοῦν σύνταγμα τῶν χ(ριστο)ῦ λόγων·
τέτρωρον ὥσπερ ἅρμά σοι ζεύξας ἅμα:
διφρηλάτην ἄλλον σε καινὸν ἠλίαν·
ποθῶ κατιδεῖν ἐνθέως ἐπηρμένον·
εἰ γὰρ ἐπιβῆς δεξιῶς τῆς ἁψίδος·
καὶ τὰς νοητὰς ἡνίας ἀναλάβης·
τοὺς πρακτικοὺς ἵππους τε καλῶς δαμάσ(εις)
νύσσ(αν) πρὸς οὐράνιον ἰθύνων τρέχειν;
καὶ σὺ φανήσῃ καλὸς ἡνιοστρόφος·
παύων ἐκεῖσε τὸν δρόμον σὺν ἠλία·
πλὴν ὡς ἐκεῖνος ἀλλὰ κ(αὶ) σύ μοι χάριν·
κἂν οὐχὶ διπλῆν ἀλλ' ἁπλῆν εὐχὴν δίδου
θεοδόσιος ταῦτα προσφόρως γράφει
ὁ τῆς τε βίβλου τὴν γραφὴν ἐξανύσας·
καὶ παῖς σὸς ἐν πν(εύματ)ι καὶ μονότροπο(ς):·​
