After the consulship of Flavius Clementinus and Probus, the most illustrious, since the most wonderful Athanasius, son of the most revered memory of Paul, who became a deacon through you, Flavius John, the chief and curator of the same honorable Athanasius, is here in the splendid city of Oxyrhynchus. Aurelius Serenus, son of John, mother of Sophia, from the same city of Oxyrhynchus, greetings. I willingly accept to be hired from the new moon of Thoth in the coming year 246 of the eighth year of the divine administration from the governors to your virtue and those who have come to it from the just exchange which has been made by the most venerable Catholic Church, a whole household, moving towards the sun with all of its just and good things, and I will fulfill for it in regard to the rent of this for a year five gold coins from the profits.
