                      Comme l’ont noté les éditeurs des
                      pièces parallèles, le premier vers est hypermètre. Pour le réduite à douze
                      pieds, il faut supposer la prononciation du nom Théodore sans le E, ce
                      qui justifierait son abréviation inhabituelle. Le καί n’a aucune utilité, voire
                      brouille la compréhension de la légende.
                      Les Marchapsaboi, d’origine syriaque, n’ont pas laissé de traces
                      dans les sources narratives ou documentaires ; en revanche, ils ont frappé
                      de nombreuses bulles qui attestent que, dans les années 1060-1080 [1],
                      ils jouèrent un grand rôle dans le sud-est de l’Anatolie, où ils étaient
                      probablement établis. Théodore eut la carrière la plus remarquable. Il fut
                      stratège de Tarse [2] et d’Anazarbe [3].
