Greetings to you. First of all, I perform the worship of you among the gods here. In the first month, on the 15th day of Demetrius, Kaenes went out with his brother as you have set forth the matters of the earth. We have diligently made it. The elder has delayed before he worked. We said that it will be given to you by Diogenes, the brother of Paosneus, if we receive it according to our opinion. Let us take it with care. I have three loaves of bread and send this to you. Your daughter Apollonia greets you and your mother and all your relatives. Greetings to you, Sarapion, and give back.
