Memoir of Nicander from Phibios of Pasitos, a farmer from Oxyrhynchus of Arsinoites. I farm a royal land (of arouras), and the land has been presented; I have also given you previously a report that my Cressilaus has been removed (*). I owe nothing to him; therefore, you will kindly remember Theodoros, so that he may order him to return to me the livestock, so that I may be able to replenish the fields of the land. Good luck.

Petition to Nikanor from Phibios, son of Pasitos, a farmer from Oxyrhyncha in the Arsinoite nome. I cultivate royal land (130 arouras), and the land is ready. I have previously submitted a petition to you stating that Kresilaos has taken away from me two pairs of oxen, two female donkeys, and two foals, although I owe him nothing. Therefore, kindly speak to Theodoros, so that he may order [him] to return the animals to me, so that I may be able to fulfill the land taxes. Farewell.
Line 7: read "ἀφῄρηταί" (corrected form).
