Τὸ δεῖπνον ἁβρὸν δ’ ἐτίμων ὁ δεσπότης,
φίλοι προσηνεῖς, οὐ φθορᾶς πλήρης πόσις,
ἀλλ’ ἀμβροσία· τὸ γὰρ αἷμα δεσπότου
καὶ σὰρξ μερισμός, ἡ τροφή τε καὶ πόσις.
Σύνδειπνον αὐχεῖς, ὦ μοναχέ, τὸν λόγον,
σύστελλε χεῖρα τοῖς παρατεθειμένοις,
μήπως ἀνέδην, ἠμμένος τοῦ τρυβλίου,
καὶ Χριστὸν αὐτὸν ἐμπολήσῃς αὐτίκα.
Γρηγόριός σοι προσβοᾷ ῥακενδύτης,
μονῆς προεστώς, εὐτελῆς Θεοῦ θύτης.
Title(s) Στίχοι κυροῦ Νικηφόρου του Ξανθοπούλου εἰς τὸ μυστικὸν δεῖπνον τοῦ κυρίου ἡμῶν Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ
