Apparatus
(From) the one who has stolen the holy relics of the church of Aspidā has entered into Kegēthin,
[the village] having these, and the greater of those there does not tolerate nor the holy relics
[to be given(?)] nor to hand over the woman. Therefore, let your
great magnificence be called upon to grant to me and to herself and to present in these things to God
and to command in the first instance
that the holy relics
be returned, if she sees and the woman is to be handed over, let this
be commanded to happen. And let your magnificence grant us henceforth her ascent,
since I do not neglect
because of her such
absence. ☧
(To) the great [magnificence]
and [to the one] who is adorned.
