	+ ὥσπερ θίασος πατέρ(ων) θεοφρόν(ων)
	ὡς ἂν νέφο(ς) τίσιν θλίβ(ων) θείω πόθω,
	βροντ(ῆς) ῥαγείσης συμπιλήσει πυρπνόου,
	ὀμβροβλυτῶ νάμ(α)τα τ(ῶν) διδαγμάτων
	ἀποστολ(ικῶν) εἰς ἐπιλύσιν λόγων
	ἔνθ(εν) ἀρύση π(ᾶς) προσιὼν ἐμφρόν(ως)
	φων(ὰς) θ(εο)ῦ πν(εύματ)ι κεκροτημένας
	ζῶντο(ς) ποταμ(οὺς) ὕδατο(ς) χ(ριστὸ)ς ἔφη
	ὧν ἡδύνει τὸ χῦμα τ(ὴν) θ(εο)ῦ πόλ(ιν)·
	ἐπὶ δὲ τούτ(οις) τω χρυσοστόμω χάρις,
	ἐν ὑδραγωγ(οῖς) τ(ὴν) ἄληπτ(ον) ἐνφράσει,
	γνῶσ(ιν) ὑπερφέρουσ(αν), ὥστε θεικόσι.
