O Christ the God, saviour of the world, have mercy upon the Christ-loving Lady Mary and her son Maximus, and grant rest to their forefathers, through the prayers of all the saints. Amen.

In the diplomatic transcription in the source instead of THN appears THB which is a typographical mistake, as N is clearly seen on the photograph of the inscription (Plate XX, #3).

Χριστὲ ὁ Θεὸς σωτὴρ τοῦ κόσμου ἐλέησον τὴν φιλόχριστον κυρὰν Μαρίαν καὶ τὸν ταύτης υἱὸν Μάξημον καὶ ἀνάπαυσον τοὺς αὐτῶν γωνεῖς εὐχαῖς πάντων τῶν ἁγίων. Ἀμίν.
