I willingly and freely agree, through this written security, to be ready to live with you in a good and common life for as long as you wish, from today and from the day that is recorded, which is the 14th of Pachon of the current month of the fortunate second indiction, and to place all care and attention to your fruitful offspring in the order of legitimate children, and to provide for you, simply and without any negligence, to take care of you in all possible ways according to my maternal duty, until the 14th of the month of the same second indiction, each year, and never to expel you from the common life, without disorder and chaos, but rather to work for you and to contribute to me each month of the ten months six keratia from the salary of your work, for the need of your payment and of the two coins which you owe for your loan, and never to use them for any base or disgraceful works and for any pretext regarding the payment of the same from the keratia each month, to be able to pay me what you owe for your loan of the same two coins from the keratia, which together make twelve according to the appropriate and necessary arrangements between us, in agreement upon these. But if at the beginning of the first month of this payment of the six keratia per month you do not pay willingly, these two coins shall be given to me without any doubt and judgment and any kind of pretext whatsoever. And if I should wish to expel you from the aforementioned agreements, I am ready to provide you with six gold coins, and I will keep the receipt of the loan of the two coins. And for the security of the aforementioned agreements made by me in this agreement, I have pledged to you in a secure word and in a lawful pledge, all that I have and will have. Indeed, if you should appear to be a debtor and unable in all your works, to go out from me naked, naked, along with your debt of the same two coins. And upon all these things, having been asked, I have agreed."
