| Ἔστι δ' ἀριθμὸς τῶν τετραδίων τούτων | |
| δεκὰς τετραπλῆ ὁμοῦ καὶ δύο πάντα. | |
| Ἐξώνησις δὲ τῶν τετραδίων τούτων | |
| νομισμάτων γέγονε πέντε πρὸς δέκα. | |
| Ἐμοῦ τυγχάνει Ματθαίου δὲ τὸ κτῆμα, | |
| τοῦ καὶ κοπιάσαντος οἰκειοχείρως, | |
| καὶ ἐξοδιάσαντος τοῦ προστατοῦντος, | |
| τοῦ πατριάρχου Ἰωσὴφ κύρου λέγω, | |
| οὗ καὶ φοιτητὴς ὑπάρχω τοῦ ἁγίου, | |
| τῷ λόγῳ μόνῳ οὐ τῇ πράξει καθόλου, | |
| οὗ καὶ ὑπερεύχεσθαι δίκαιον πέλει. | |
| Τὸν ἀναγινώσκοντα μετ' εὐλαβείας, | |
| ἵν' ἀξιωθῆ τῆς αἰωνίου δόξης | |
| εὐφραινόμενος εἰς ἀπείρους αἰῶνας. |

| Translation(s) |
The total number of these quires is four times ten plus two, and the quires' price amounted to fifteen nomismata. [The book] is the property of me, Matthew, who also produced it by his own hand, at the expense and by the order of Kyr Patriarch Joseph, of whose holiness I am, in name rather than in fact, a pupil. And it is right that whoever reads this reverently pray for him [Joseph] to be judged worthy of the eternal glory, rejoicing for ages on end.
