| Σοὶ χάρις, ὑψιθόωκε ἄναξ θεέ, κοίρανε πάντων, | |
| ὑψιμέδων ἀκίχητε νόῳ, σθένος οὐκ ἐπιεικτὸν | |
| ἄφθιτε, οὗ κράτος αἰὲν ἀΐδιον ἀστυφέλικτον· | |
| σοὶ κλέος εὐδοκίης, καὶ σοὶ πρέπει ὕμνος ἄληκτος | |
| οὕνεκα τόνδε ἄεθλον ἐυγραφίης περατῶσαι | |
| πορσύνας ἠνορέην μοι ἀγασθενεῖ ἰσχύϊ σεῖο· | |
| ἀλλὰ μάκαρ καὶ ἔπειτα καὶ εἰσέτι ἵλαος εἴης, | |
| πᾶσαν ἐς ἐργασίαν ἀγαθήν μοι κάρτος ὀπάζων. |
