	Δέχνυσο τοῖον δῶρον. ἀφ’ ἡμετέροιο πόνοιο,
	ὀλβιόδωρε ἄνασσα, κυδίστη ἀριστοτόκεια,

	ἣν πλέον ἀπαστράπτουσαν ἐϋβλεφάροιο σελήνης·
	εἰς γάμον ὅλβιον ἤρατο νυμφιδίοις ἐπὶ λέκτροις,
	πορφυρόπαις γόνος αὐσονάνακτος καρτεροῖο,
	ἀνδρόνικος μεγάθυμος, ἐϋμελίης πολεμιστὴς,
	ὧ γέρα πρῶτα σεβαστοκρατορίης, νοῖμ’ ὁ φυτεύσας.
	εἰς τοίνυν λυκάβαντ(ας) ἀπειρεσίους ἐλάσειας.
