	Ἄνω φέρων σε τῶ τρόπω προς τω χρόνω ·
	Κάτω γράφει σοι τὴν ἀνωτάτω βάσιν ·
	Τὸν οὖν ι(ησοὺ)ν ὃν τυποῖ σοι καὶ βλέπε ·
	Μετροχονῶν τὰ βάθρα τούτω εὐστόχως ·
	Ὥς φησι παῦλος αὐτὸν ἠλαττωμενο(ν) ·
	Καὶ τοῦ πάθους ἔπαθλον εὑρόντα κράτος ·
	Ὅτ’ἂν γίνη γὰρ εἰς ταπείνωσιν ἄκραν ·
	Τότε πρὸς ὕψος ου(ρα)νου κατα\|δράμεις ·
