Ἡδὺ μέν ἐστι τοῖς ξένοις τὰ ἐν οἴκῳ·
ἐμοὶ δὲ ἡδύτερον τῷ γεγραφότι·
καὶ πληρώσαντι τὴν θείαν ταύτην δέλτον·
ἐξ ἐπιτροπῆς τοῦ θείου παντευγενοῦς·
κυροῦ Λέοντος τοῦ τῶν ἀρχόντων κλέους·
τοῦ πανευσεβοῦς καὶ θεοφιλεστάτου·
χριστομιμήτου καὶ πανευσυμποθήτου·
διψῶν γὰρ αὐτὸς χρυσορείθρων ναμάτων·
τῆς ὑπερτίμου καὶ θεοφθόγγου γλώττης·
τοῦ σοφωτάτου τῶν σοφῶν διδασκάλου·
Γρηγορίου λέγω δὴ τοῦ Θεολόγου·
δέδωκεν ἐμοὶ τῷ οἰκτρῷ Γεωργίῳ·
τῷ ἀναγνώστῃ καὶ ἑαυτοῦ τε δούλῳ·
ἅπασαν τὴν ἔξοδον τῶν τε χαρτίων·
μετὰ τοῦ γραψιμάτου καὶ τοῦ μελάνου·
ἐγώ δε πεπλήρωκα τὴν δέλτον ταύτην·
μηνὶ μαΐῳ ἰνδικτιώνης ἕκτης·
τοῦ ἔτους ἑξὰς ἑξάχι καὶ πεντήντα·
συναριθμούσης καὶ τῆς λοιπῆς δυάδος.
Δεῦρο δὴ λοιπὸν κορωνὶς τῶν ἀρχόντων·
σὺν ἅμα ἐμοὶ τῷ οἰκτρῷ· (...)
