Artemidorus greets Zenon. If you are well, I am also well.
I have written to you previously about how to buy the three measures of honey, which I have deemed worthy for you to purchase from Apollonios, while he is in our acquaintance in Ptolemaïs, to hand over to Ptolemaios from us, so that, having met with Heracleodorus, he may place it. Therefore, Heracleodorus is already sailing.
You will do well, if the Ptolemaios has not yet taken care to ensure that the honey of Heracleodorus does not arrive late.
Farewell. (Year) 36, of Loios 16.
To Philadelphia. (Year) 36, of Thouth.
Artemidorus of honey measures.
To Zenon.
Pigs, wild birds, and larks, and the meat of the wild boar.
