Is there original text of the cherem, exactly as written by Rabbeinu Gershom, in any Sefer?

Btw, did the Sephardim not accept any portion of the cherem or they just didn’t accept the ban on polygamy?

And if someone violates one of the cherem’s, is it akin to violating mitzvah d’rabbanan instituted by Chazal (even though in this case it was instituted by a Rishon)?
