No one wishes to accuse or to blame anyone in the prefaces of the letter, so that the reader may not be disturbed and may not read the letter, but you shall write the order of the preface. And we shall do all that has been commanded to us. There are also the offerings of the Lord Menas. And concerning the need for the radish, I have two half vessels. And concerning the blessed one, I have said to you what the singular one says. / / She has been raised and has her in her house and does not allow her to come to me, saying that she is free, but I am to the most wise scholar Agrippas, submitting to the most magnificent one himself to secure her so that she may not act indecently. As you wish (and) as you know, do it, but with diligence. For I send her for a reply. Send also a servant to him, he says, do not let her be weak. And you command, and to the Lord Aphoua, the helper of the one who is being served, write concerning this. The one who was previously worshiped by me, I commend to the Lord John (and) George the one who is the overseer and the Lord Anoup. I have said to the brother of the Lord Anoup that with God he is well. Small lentils I send, and to Menas the one who burns, I commend and send to him the first fruits. Your servant worships you. May God deem us worthy to worship in peace.
