	Κτῆμα Φρυγανῶν τῆς μονῆς τὸ βιβλίον,
	ᾗτινι κλῆσις κόσμος ἅμα καὶ κλέος,
	ἡ λαμπρὰ κλῆσις μάρτυρος Γεωργίου,
	καὶ τοῦτο σαθρὸν τῷ μακρῷ φανθὲν χρόνῷ
	καὶ διάλυσιν ὑπομεῖναν εἰς μέρη
	καὶ κινδυνεῦσαν μηδὲν εἶναι μηδόλως,
	πάλιν Ἰσαάκ ἀρχιθύτης Ἐφέσου,
	πληρῶν τὸ λεῖπον καὶ τὸ λυθὲν συνδέων,
	ἔδειξε καλῶς καινὸν ἐκ παλαιτέρου
	καὶ δείξας, αὖθις τῷ μεγαλάθλῳ νέμει
	τελείαν ἀκίβδηλον ἄμωμον δόσιν·
	ᾧ καὶ χέρας τίς προσβαλὼν ἐπὶ λύμῃ
	τὴν θείαν ἴστω μὴ διαδράσων δίκην
	δεινὴν μὲν οὖσαν καὶ πᾶσι τοῖς ἀδίκοις
	μᾶλλον δὲ δεινὴν τοῖς, ὅσοι τὰ μαρτύρων
	βλάπτειν θέλουσι καὶ συλᾶν οὐκ ἐνδίκως.
