"Upon you, the most illustrious lords of ours, Constantine and Maximian, the most distinguished Caesars, to Aurelius Seuthis, and to Horion, the accountant of Oxyrhynchus, from Aurelius Hierax of Asclepiades, from the same city. As many things as have been unlawfully attempted against our cohabitation, named Sarapias, by Psôitos and Tiron, his brother-in-law, and of these women and all their children, I have made the narrative through which I have previously presented a public testimony. Therefore, my registered cohabitant has been affected by the wounds and they struck against the arm. Necessarily, I am delivering these books, valuing them for one of those concerning you to be sent to the public servant, the one who will be expected together with the same servant, the disposition of the cohabitant, and addressing you in writing, and these things to be in the order of testimony and security for our sake in order to maintain for me the account concerning the justice before the magnitude of the governance. (In the year) and (in the 13th year) of our lords Diocletian and Maximian, the Augusti, and of Constantine and Maximian, the most distinguished Caesars, Pauni. Aurelius Hierax of Asclepiades has delivered."

In the consulship of our lords Constantius and Maximian, the most illustrious Caesars.
To Aurelius Seuthes, also called Horion, accountant of Oxyrhynchus, from Aurelius Hierax, son of Asklepiades, from the same city.
Concerning all the unlawful acts committed against my wife, whose name is Sarapias, by Psois and his son-in-law Tiron, and by their wives and all their sons, I have already made a full account through a publicly registered deposition.
Since, therefore, my aforementioned wife was maltreated with blows and struck on the arm, I am compelled to submit these documents, requesting that through one of your assistants a public physician be sent, who will examine my wife's condition together with the same assistant, and report to you in writing, and that these very things may serve as evidence and security for us, so that my claim for justice may be preserved before the authority of your governorship.
(Year) 21 and 13 of our lords Diocletian and Maximian, Augusti, and Constantius and Maximian, the most illustrious Caesars, Pauni 28.
I, Aurelius Hierax, son of Asklepiades, have submitted this.
I, Aurelius Horion, assistant to the accountant, have delivered it.
(Year) 21 and 13, Pauni 28.
