τυτθὴ μάργαρός ἐστιν, ἀτὰρ λιθάκεσσιν ἀνάσσει,
τυτθὴ καὶ Βηθλέμ, ἔμπα δὲ χριστοφόρος:
ὣς δ᾽ ὀλίγην μὲν ἐγὼ ποίμνην λάχον, ἀλλὰ φερίστην
Γρηγόριος, τὴν σύ, παῖ φίλε, λίσσομ᾽, ἄγοις.

— Paton edition

Small is the pearl, but the queen of jewels;
small is Bethlehem, but yet the mother of Christ;
so a little flock was mine, Gregory’s, but of the best ;
and I pray, my dear son, that thou mayest lead it.
