Ἄναξ ὑπάρχων Χριστέ μου τῶν ἀνάκτων,
κύριός τε καὶ ποιητὴς τῶν ἁπάντων,
Θεοφάνην φύλαττε τὸν σὸν οἰκέτην
τεύξαντα βίβλον τὴν νέαν θείῳ πόθῳ·
δίδου δὲ σθένος καὶ κράτος τε ἐξ ὕψους
λιταῖς ἀλήκτοις τῆς τεκούσης ἀφθόρως
Προκοπίου τε τοῦ θείου μάρτυρός σου,
ἣν ἀνέθηκεν νεὼ τῷ τούτου πίστει
ἀντιλάβοι δὲ λύσιν ἀμπλακημάτων.
