Inscription in the middle right, below the horizontal line: Словѣньскъ (Old Church Slavonic): М агє́сницыт є и҆ вражали́цыт є са дѧ́волски слугѝ, за т о ва̀ и҆ дѧ́волъ-о мно́госє ра́дува, ска́ча, и҆ и҆гра́є, прє̀дъ о҆ніѧ, що и́да т прѝ нѝ, и҆ това̀ що запоѧ́ва т , и҆ що захра́нува т , о҆но̀ є̀ дѧ́волски гнусотіи коѝ о҆ста́вѧ т б҃га, зако́нъ-а, и҆ цє́ркват а , и҆ хо́дa т при вражали́цыт є о҆нѝ нє са̀ б҃жїѝ, но дѧ́волски слугѝ.. English : Magicians and healers are servants of the devil. That's why the devil rejoices greatly, jumps around, and dances in front of people who come to them. And what they [the healers] give them to drink and eat is devils' filth. Those who abandon God, the laws, and the church, and go to the healers, are servants not of God, but of the devil. |
