Theophilus, greetings to Plutarch. If you could kindly send me the letters you have, which I have left behind, I would appreciate it. For I have need of them, as I have been away for a longer time. Please also send me the seed of the grass from Dionysius as much as you can, and the remaining payment demands them since it did not seem good to him to promise the seed of the grass nor to the other matters at this time. Let it be received by me the seed of the plant to be accepted. I ask you to send it to the fields and to Hipponicus. It is necessary to act twice unjustly. Farewell (in the year) 23 of L. To Plutarch.

Theophilos to Plutarch, greetings. You would do well to send me the [...] which you owed from the remainder [...] as I have written to you. For I have need of them, since I have stayed here for a longer time. Also, send me as much grass seed as you can from Dionysios, and demand the remaining money from them, since neither did it seem good to him to promise regarding the grass seed nor regarding the chickling (arakos) until now [...] he accepts from me the [...] of the seed to undertake [...] you spend [...] to deliver for (arouras) [...]ros and Hipponikos [...] collect (artabas) 37 [...] twice wronged [...] Farewell. Year 23, Loios 27. To Plutarch.
