Apparatus
To Harpochratios:
Observe everything so that it does not become food
from the farmers.
For it is a forewarning
of the things of Argaios and of Chrysochoos and the things of the Kerkesouchon. Furthermore,
give a command to the one from the Kerkesouchon, the craftsman,
whenever he is ready, to signal to you. Let the grass be in the chamber of Abonos; fill
the chamber and send the remainder to us; send me one
aroullan tomorrow having
and a morsel. Do not do otherwise.

Ἁρποχ̣ρ̣ατίωνι
To Harpocration:
Watch carefully everything, lest perhaps grain should become available from the farmers. For the early produce belongs to Argaeus and the goldsmith and those from Kerkesoucha. Instruct the carpenter from Kerkesoucha that whenever he is ready, he should inform you. Leave the hay in Habon's chamber; fill the chamber, and send the remainder to us. Also, send me one small loaf tomorrow, along with bread. Do not do otherwise.
