From Ptolemy, your writer, to write to Antioch in the account, while considering the matters pertaining to the royal duties, of Menoius, to provide the remaining things, Ptolemy the letter-writer has added, as is appropriate, of the others indeed having been called, it hinders me from being separated from Antioch. I will assert that I may not be arranged as an excuse for the financial matters (and almost) it is already clear to you that he is more trustworthy than the accountants. Good luck. (Year) 20, Epiph.
