| Ὁ ταξιάρχης στρατιωτῶν τῶν ἄνω | |
| ἐκ τῶν ἀδύτων οὐρανοῦ σφαιρωμάτων | |
| ἄρτι κατιὼν πτηνὸς αἰθεροδρόμος, | |
| Ἐδὲμ καθάπερ τοῦ ναοῦ τηρεῖ πύλας | |
| γυμνὴν ἀβάλε δεξιᾷ φέρων σπάθην | |
| τί τοῦτο δηλῶν, ἢ τομὴν ὀλεθρίαν | |
| τοῖς μὴ καθαροῖς, μηδὲ χωρὶς σπιλάδων. | |
| Προσχῶμεν οὐκοῦν, μὴ διχασθῶμεν φίλοι. |
| Title(s) | Εἰς τὸν ἀρχιστράτηγον ἑστῶτα πρὸ τῶν πυλῶν καὶ σπάθην ἐπιφερόμενον |

| Translation(s) |
In militiae caelestis principem stantem ante portas et ensem inferentem. Ductor militum qui sunt in altis ex inaccessis caeli orbibus nuper descendens alatus aetherio-cursu, Eden, tanquam templi, servat fores, nudum, eheu! dextra gerens gladium, quasi hoc monstrans aut caedem exitialem illis qui non puri sunt neque citra scopulos. Adhibeamus igitur mentem, ne separemur amici. |
