"Amen. To my most honorable and most wonderful lords, to my sweetest mother and to my uncle Theophanius, your servant and worshiper Philoxenus in the Lord God, I have and had all joy from your sweetest letters. I know that I wish you, my most honorable lords, to have the love in Christ, that you may be well in all things and I attend to myself as I am moved by your sweetest letters. For I hope through your prayers to have a perfect and unblemished and sincere hope living in me and to grant you the grateful return of your labors as you have made such gifts to me. Your mother of Mena and Epiphania and my aunt Prosforia, who comforts me well, and Pallas and your sons Isaiah and Dorotheus. Salute my lady and my lady Mary and the nun Athonina and my sweetest brother Heraklamon and my sister Hera and Joseph and John and Parigorian and Theon of the carpets. I received on the ship of Samuel large nettles, two swords, nettles of honey, two nettles of olives, and also on the ship of Phoidammons I received nine nettles of wine and of Ascalon. Pray for me concerning the holy John and the holy Euphemia and the holy Mena and the holy Peter and the holy Julian. May He guide your affairs and may the Holy Spirit clothe you. Grant me to be freed from the burdens of those receiving and may you be well for many years."

To my most honored and most admirable lords, my father and my sweetest mother, and to my uncle Theophanios, your servant and worshipper Philoxenos sends greetings in the Lord God.
I have and had every joy upon receiving your sweetest letters. I wish you to know, my most honored lords, that you have the acceptable love in Christ, and that through your prayers everything goes well, and I take care of myself just as you instructed me through your sweetest letters.
For I hope, through your prayers, to have perfect and unhindered and unchanging and sincere living hope, and that I myself may labor and repay you gratefully for your efforts, just as you have bestowed such great favors upon me.
The mother of Menas and Epiphania greet you, as does my mother Prosphoria, who takes good care of me, and Pallas, and your sons Isaias and Dorotheos. Greet for me my lady and my lady Maria and the nun Athonis and my sweetest brother Heraklammon and my sister Herain and Joseph and John and Paregorios and Theon the carpet-weaver.

I pray that you remain in good health for many years.
† I greet Phoibammon the farmer and Philoxena the daughter of Theophanios and everyone in the household.
To my most honored lord, my father Zoilos... your servant Philoxenos in the Lord God...
