Smear the iron that wounded, and spit the Roman phrase
For a wound from iron. For the one struck by iron this too is a cure of pain: one ought to smear the iron that wounded, then strike it against the wound. Let us say "ta ta" three times, while also spitting a certain Roman phrase which is laid in the pentagon set out, the fifth, toward the chromatic signs: an inverted alpha with a line behind, and a turned-back gamma with two lines behind.
The pain will then cease. Let the sons of physicians treat the wound, the sufferer readily furnishing himself to their touching.
Greek
1.5 Πρὸς τὴν ἀπὸ σιδήρου πληγήν Καὶ τῷ πληγέντι δὲ ἀπὸ σιδήρου τόδε ὀδύνης ἄκος· τὸν τρώσαντα σίδηρον ἀλεῖψαι προσήκει, εἶτ' ἐπικροῦσαι αὐτὸν τῷ τραύματι· λέγωμεν <δὲ> «τὰ τὰ» τρίς, ἅμα τε ἐπιπτύοντες Ῥωμαῖαν τινὰ ῥῆσιν ἣ ἐν τῷ ἐκκειμένῳ πενταγώνῳ <εʹ> ἔγκειται πρὸς τὰ σημεῖα χρωματικῆς, ἄλφα <ὕπτιον ὄπισθε γραμμὴν ἔχον καὶ γάμμα> ἀπεστραμμένον ὄπισθε βʹ γραμμὰς ἔχον. Ἡ μὲν οὖν ἀλγηδὼν παύσεται· τὸ δὲ τραῦμα ἰατρῶν παῖδες θεραπευέτωσαν, τοῦ κάμνοντος ἑαυτὸν εὐχερῶς ἐς τὴν ἐπάφησιν αὐτῶν χορηγοῦντος.
