	+ εἰς πᾶσ(αν) εἰς γῆν ὡς δα(υὶ)δ ψάλλει γράφων·
	ἀποστόλ(ων) ὁ φθόγγος ἐξῆλθε τρέχων,
	πάντα σχεδὸν τ(ὸν) κόσμον ἡ βίβλο(ς) φέρει·
	τίς γαρ θεωρῶν εἰς τ(ὸ) βάθος τ(ῶν) λόγων,
	τὸ σχῆμα τῆς γῆς οὐ δοκεῖ περιτρέχ(ειν)·
	ὅσον κατέσχον τ(ῶν) γραφ(ῶν) τῷ δικτύῳ,
	οἱ ψυχοκερδεῖς ἁλιεῖς τοῦ δεσπότου.
	πλὴν ἀλλὰ τ(ῆς) γ(ῆς) εὑρέθη πλατύτερ(ον):
	τοῦ βιβλίου τὸ χρῆμα κἂν συνεστάλη·
	τοὺς γὰρ λογι(...)οὺς οὐ(ρα)νοὺς ἔνδον φέρει
	(...)ντ(ὰς) νοητ(ὰς) ἀφιέντ(ας) τῇ κτίσει
