In the period after the consulship of our lord Flavius Zeno, the eternal Augustus Emperor, on the 3rd of Thoth, [in the] indiction.
To Flavius Theodoros, son of Theodoros, honorable citizen of the most illustrious city of Hermopolis, from Aurelius Papnouthios, son of Horos, whose mother is Eutos, from the village of Phby in the Hermopolite nome.
I voluntarily and freely acknowledge that I have leased from your magnificence for a period of four years, starting from the harvest of the fortunate sixth indiction, the share belonging to your excellence, consisting of a vineyard plot of land, however many arouras it may be, together with all its plants and date-palms, situated in the plain of the village of Sesiou in the same nome, for manual vineyard cultivation, gardening, cleaning, and all necessary care. You, the landowner, shall receive half of a quarter of all wine produced and of the fruit of all kinds of plants and date-palms, and I, the vine-dresser, shall receive the other quarter in return for my labor and expenses. Additionally, you, the landowner, shall receive from the common jar, as first-fruits, one hundred [...] at the time of vintage, one basket worth six thousand silver talents, and a dish full of food worth four thousand silver talents, and [...] along with the other vine-dressers, one xestes of Syrian oil, half a xestes of Spanish oil, and half an artaba of fine bread, on condition that I dig one-fourth of the vineyard each year. I am ready to perform the required tasks along with my fellow vine-dressers, including earthworks [...]. This lease is valid and confirmed, and upon being questioned, I have acknowledged it.
† [Aurelius] Papnouthios, son of Horos, the aforementioned, I have leased as stated above.
Aurelius Herminos, son of Palladios, from Hermopolis, having been requested, wrote on his behalf, as he does not know letters.
Aurelius [...] from Hermopolis, I testify to the lease, having heard it from the contracting party.
⳨ Aurelius Phoibammon, son of Herakleios, from Hermopolis, I testify to the lease, having heard it from the contracting party.
Written by me, Antinoos [...] †
