With God! This little book was made by the zeal and care of the God-loving brother, Etout Khael, the son of the blessed Stephen, the lion hunter, who undertook [the writing thereof] at his own expense, and gave it to the Monastery of St. Mercurius of the City of Tbo (Apollinopolis, or Utfu, or Udfu), for the salvation of his soul, in order that [the monks might] read therein the name of Abbaton, the Angel of Death, and that Saint Mercurius might invoke Christ on his behalf, and bless him in this world, and deliver him from all the wiles of the Devil and of wicked men, and might help him to bring every work to a successful issue, and that when he cometh forth from this life the Archangel Abbaton may shew kindness on his behalf before God, and may forgive him his sins.
