| Τὴν βίβλον εἴ τις τήνδε τοῦ Χρυσοστόμου | |
| καὶ χρυσολαμποῦς καὶ διαυγοῦς ποιμένος | |
| πιστῶς διέλθοι καὶ φιλευσεβῶς ἅμα | |
| εἰς νοῦν βαθύνει τῶν σοφῶν συνταγμάτων | |
| καὶ πρὸς λόγων ἄβυσσον ἢ νοημάτων | |
| τὴν γλῶτταν ὡς ἄγκιστρον ἐγκαθελκύσει, | |
| θησαυρὸν εὕροι μὴ ῥέοντα τῷ χρόνῳ | |
| τὸν μαργαρίτην ἔνδοθεν κεκτημένον | |
| ψυχὰς πενιχρὰς τὸν τελοῦντα πλουσίως | |
| τὴν γνῶσιν αὐγάζοντα τὴν ὑπὲρ φύσιν, | |
| τὴν πίστιν ἀστράπτοντα πάσῃ τῇ κτίσει | |
| τὸ κάλλος ἐκλάμποντα τῶν διδαγμάτων, | |
| τὸ κέρδος ἐκφαίνοντα τὸ ψυχοτρόφον. |
