Note of possession, which occurs in the manuscripts of the Holy Trinity monastery (Chalki island), re-founded by the patriarch Metrophanes III of Constantinople in the 16th century. The epigram is preserved in 62 manuscripts. A variant, in which the third verse is modified ("καὶ εἴ τις βουληθῇ ποτὲ λαθραίως ταύτην ἅραι"), can be found in 15 manuscripts (cf. Cassin (2020: 25-26; 36-41)).
The epigram is sometimes followed by another epigram dedicated to the patriach Metrophanes III: 'Οἱ πατέρες μέμνησθε τοῦ Μητροφάνους.' Cassin (2020: 26): "Le nom de Métrophane est remplacé de façon ponctuelle par d’autres noms (Euthyme, Solomon, Syméon), dont certains furent sans doute des higoumènes du monastère." |
