"To the most honorable of our lords, Flavius Valerius Constantine and Licinianus Licinius, the most honorable of the Valerians, and to Heron and Sarapion, the accountant of Oxyrhynchus, from the community of the merchants of this city, through our Theodorus Sarapion and Diodorus Dionysius, the magistrates. Following the commands given, we declare the following concerning the honor of which we are in charge, and we swear by the divine oath not to lie. There is: of wine from the Oasitic region, a certain amount (denarii), and of the fat from Thebes, a certain amount (denarii) of the same, concerning the magistracy of this city, Thoth. We, Aurelius Theodorus and Diodorus, declare as is appropriate. Aurelius Horion wrote on behalf of them, not knowing."
