[The Story on Tiflis]

 

MSCRIn a year full of evils,
as a completion of the three long years, 
when all the disturbances increased,
locust and cricket, and hunger, and death, 
and devastation, and terror, and sedition
fol. 49r Ruled over all the lands,
there was an ominous rumour heard,
that came to Tiflis city:
Ever since Christianity began,
there was neither people nor folk,
against whom evils took their fill.
