	Τέλος ἔλαβ(εν) ἡ τετρά<ρι>θμος βίβλος·
	Ματθαῖ(ος), Μάρκ(ος), Λουκᾶς καὶ Ἰω<άννης>.
	Διὰ χειρὸς ἐμοῦ τάχα καὶ μοναχοῦ Λογγίνου·
	καὶ οἱ ἀναγινώσκοντες, εὔχεσθαι τὸν ζωοδότην·
	ὅπως ἡμᾶς λυτρώσεται, τοῦ βαθυτάτου Ἅδου,
	καὶ χἀριτος δωρήσηται τῆς αὐτοῦ βασιλείας·
	αὐτῷ πρέπει δόξα καὶ τιμή, κράτος, μεγαλωσύνη·
	αἴνεσις, εἰς ἀπεράντους αἰῶνας τῶν αἰώνων.
