Incipit

"ܒܗ ܒܙܒܢܐ ܗܢܐ ܕܐܬܟܠܠ ܩܕܝܫܐ ܒܪܒܥܫܡܝܢ: ܙܩܦ ܗܘ̣ܐ ܡܚܫܘܠܐ ܩܫܝܐ ܥܠ ܐܬܪܢ: ܘܐܘܠܨܢܐ ܪܒܐ ܥܠ ܥܡܢ: ܘܥܩܘܪܝܐ ܠܥ̈ܕܬܢ: ܘܦܘܪܣܝܐ ܠܬܫܡܫܬܢ. ܘܫܪܝܘ ܚܝ̈ܠܬܢܐ ܒܝܘܬܪ̈ܢܐ: ܘܪ̈ܦܝܐ ܒܚܘܣܪ̈ܢܐ."1 "À l’époque même où fut couronné saint Barba‘shmîn, se souleva une tempête violente contre notre région, une grande affliction contre notre peuple, une destruction contre nos Églises, la profanation contre nos rites; les forts commencèrent à croître, et les mous à diminuer."1
