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.
