"I, [name], am writing this in regard to the most wonderful man, so that he may not be found in the same estate, remaining there. I am ready to provide you with a statement of a violation of a golden weight, one, and I will deliver to you the same mentioned Georgios in a public and practical place, from any military, clerical, or monastic scheme, or if he should be liable to the divine oath and the danger attached to it; and when questioned, I confessed. I, Aurelios Phoibammōn of Senthaesios, guarantee the mentioned Georgios and the divine oaths as stated. Aurelios Ioannis Hermōthios, having been asked, wrote on behalf of him letters not known. Aurelios Mēnās son of Ioseph, I testify in the land, having heard from the foundation. Aurelios Bottos Promaōtos, I testify in the land, having heard from the foundation. Through me, Kyros the lawyer, it was written."
