Commentary
The text is the first part of the Canticle of the Angels (Τρισάγιον, Sanctus) from the Eucharistic canon (see Lit. Bas.: 323; Lit. Chrys.: 385). A notable feature is the way the letters on the fourth line are written: the last four letters of the word οὐρανός are placed over the line and the syllable -ρης from πλήρης is written twice by mistake.
