	Εἴληφε τέρμα βίβλος ἡ Αὐγουστίνου
	μηνὶ ἀπριλλίῳ τε ἓξ καὶ δεκάτη,
	Γεωργίου χάριν τε τοῦ Παγωνίτου,
	τοῦ λίαν σοφοῦ καὶ θαυμαστοῦ ἀνέρος,
	ἐκ χειρὸς δ᾽ ἐμοῦ τοῦ λίαν ἐλαχίστου
	τλήμονος Ἰωάννου Χιονοπούλου·
	ἀλλ᾽ ὧ παντάναξ ὁ δοὺς ἀρχὴν καὶ τέλος,
	σύναυλόν με ποίησον τοῖς σοῖς οἰκέταις,
	ὅπως ἐν χώρᾳ τῶν ζώντων αἰωνίως
	οἰκῶν ὑμνῶ σε τὸν μόνον εὐεργέτην.
