The text of this invocation begins with the name of the deceased, presumably Hypnos, headed by the abbreviation for the term 'blessed'. The edition suggests reading the name of the deceased as Philop(o)nos, though without any further explanation.
Lines 1–4 read as follows:

‘The blessed Hypnos. God of saint Kollouthos, you shall have mercy on his soul. Amen.’
