Καὶ τῷ ἡγουμένῳ ἐκ τούτου, καὶ ἀπὸ τούτου εἰς τὰς ἀπαρχὰς τῶν ἁγίων, εἰς κατάσχεσιν τῆς πόλεως, κατὰ πρόσωπον τῶν ἀπαρχῶν τῶν ἁγίων, καὶ κατὰ πρόσωπον τῆς κατασχέσεως τῆς πόλεως τὰ πρὸς θάλασσαν, καὶ ἀπὸ τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν πρὸς ἀνατολάς· καὶ τὸ μῆκος ὡς μία τῶν μερίδων ἀπὸ τῶν ὁρίων τῶν πρὸς θάλασσαν, καὶ τὸ μῆκος, ἐπὶ τὰ ὅρια τὰ πρὸς ἀνατολὰς τῆς γῆς.
