| Ὁ θέλων τὴν δέλτον δέρκων ταύτην διαναπτύξαι | |
| κατὰ τρυφῶν καὶ θεωρῶν τοῦ γράψαντος τὴν τέχνην, | |
| μὴ προτιμήσας μέμψοιτο μᾶλλον δὲ καὶ εὐχέσθω· | |
| εἰ γὰρ καὶ σφάλων ἥμαρτον τοῦτο ἐξ ἀγνωσίας | |
| ἄνθρωπος γὰρ εἰμὶ θνητὸς καὶ πρὸς παλαίῳ πάθει, | |
| εὔστοχον γὰρ καὶ ἀλαθὲς μόνῳ Θεῷ τυγχάνει, | |
| ἡμεῖς δὲ σκοτεινώτατα πάθει περιπλακέντες | |
| ἠχρείωτο ἐν σώματι καὶ τῆς ψυχῆς τὸ κάλλος, | |
| καὶ ἴσως γε μικρὰ τῆς τέχνης μικροτέρα· | |
| ἠλλοίωτο, ἠχρείωτο, φεῦ μοι τῷ ταλαιπώρῳ, | |
| πεπλήρωτο γὰρ εἰς ἐμὲ ὁ τοῦ Χριστοῦ μου λόγος, | |
| ὅτι τῷ ἔχοντι πολλὰ δοθήσεται καὶ ἔχει, | |
| καὶ τὸ λοιπὸν ἃ δεῖ κλῆρον κατέχω [...] | |
| εὔχεσθαι ὑπερεύχεσθαι, ἀφ᾽ ὧν γράψας κατέχω | |
| καὶ Κηφᾶς Αἰτωλὸς γὰρ κέκληται ὁ ταῦτα ξύσας | |
| ἀνάξιος τε θύτης τ᾽ οὐπίκλην ὁ Διογένους | |
| εὔξασθε οὖν συγχωρήσατε αἰῶνος ἐς τελευτήν. |
