"...so that no harm [to me] might follow. Since, therefore, Soterichos holds in his possession documents of tax-registration covering six years belonging to me, I request that you order Soterichos to appear before you, so that he may receive instructions to keep away from me, and also be compelled to return what he holds of mine, lest any of the public documents be lost."
