The following brief text has been translated by Karen Rae Keck; produced here in association with the Pachomius Project.

Reading or writing, I diligently seek wisdom:
By day and night, I petition my lofty ruler.
I eat freely; I drink freely.
I invoke the Muses; I measure verse.
I doze off snoring; starting I pray to God.
My mind, conscious, laments life's evil errors;
You spare man by mercy, Christ born of Mary.
