ἀπ̣άλλαξον Τ̣ε̣χῶσιν,

Release Techosis,

ἣν̣ ἔτεκεν [.]..., ἀπ̣ὸ τ̣οῦ

whom [...] bore, from the

σ[υ]νέχοντος α̣ὐ̣τὴν

[fever] that grips her,

καθημερινὸν ῥιγοπ̣υ̣-

the daily shivering fe-

ρέτου ἐν τῆι σή[με]ρ̣[ον]

ver, on this [very]

ἡμέρᾳ, ἐν τῆι ἄρτι ὥρᾳ,

day, in this present hour,

ἤδη ἤδη, ταχὺ ταχύ.

now, now, quickly, quickly.

Translator's note. Techosis and the first letters of line 3 are doubtful readings, and the mother's name is lost. 'Daily' (καθημερινόν) does not agree in case with 'shivering fever'; the sense is clear.
