To Gaius Julius Lucullus, the most illustrious commander, from Tauserius Pareitios of the village of Anchors.
Pareitios of Oros, sir, and all of his possessions, being under the control of the heirs of Pareitios and of Antonios, I have, sir, an old house, of which the outstanding part is also held by the outstanding one, and it is necessary for the rent of the outstanding to be collected through the heirs being in great abundance and of good repute, and all those in control, I do not know how they demand from me the woman to be without help, the agents demanding rent for which I do not occupy a part of the outstanding for a long time in (drachmas).
Therefore, having been weakened by this, I flee to you, asking not to be disturbed, or I am about to stand apart from my own part. It is fortunate.

To Gaius Julius Lucullus,
the most excellent epistrategos,
from Tauseirios Pareitios,
of those from the village of Ankyron.
Pareitios, son of Horos, my lord,
and of all his possessions
which are held at the treasury,
being controlled by his heirs,
I, Pareitios, have a share, my lord,
along with Antonius, of an old house,
of which the "analemptos" (confiscated property) holds the greater part.
And it is necessary that the rent of the confiscated portion
be collected through the heirs,
who are in great prosperity and are respectable,
and who control everything.
I do not know how it is that the collectors demand from me,
a helpless woman, rent for a portion of the confiscated property
in which I have not lived for a long time, amounting to 503 drachmas.
Therefore, weakened by this situation, I appeal to you,
requesting not to be troubled further,
or else I shall be forced to abandon even my own portion.
Farewell.
