Aurelius Akylas, the archpriest of the illustrious city of the Antinoeans, and as I transact with Marcus Aurelius, Lucammonius Hadrianus, and Olympius, and Gaius, through Marcus Aurelius Serenus, and as I transact from the city of Oxyrhynchus, to both guarantors of Aurelius Demetrius, greetings. Since it has been agreed with my son Aurelius Nikanthinos, the one who has guaranteed you, Aurelius Demetrius, contending for the contest of the boys' wrestlers, to fall three times and to grant the old silver coinage of three thousand eight hundred drachmas, without any condition, if this should happen, the crown shall be dedicated, and he shall not be allowed to pass away concerning these matters. And if Demetrius himself should transgress anything of the written and agreed upon with my own son, he shall likewise pay to the same son of mine the same amount concerning the old silver coinage, three talents without any condition and without any pretext according to the law of the guarantee, because we have made the agreements concerning these matters. The agreement is valid, written in duplicate, of which I have one copy and you have one copy, and having been questioned, I have acknowledged it.

Aurelius Aquilas, also called Sarap[...], chief priest of the illustrious city of Antinoopolis, [and as he is styled], to Marcus Aurelius Loukammon [Hadrianus, also called Olympius, and Gaius Julius..., through Marcus] Aurelius Serenus, [also styled] from the city of Oxyrhynchus(?), both guarantors of Aurelius Demetrius, wrestler, greetings.
Since Aurelius Demetrius, guaranteed by you, has agreed with my son Aurelius Nikantinos, while competing in the wrestling contest of the youths(?), to fall three times and yield, receiving through you the sum of three thousand eight hundred drachmas of old currency without risk, on condition that, should he yield and not fail(?), the crown shall be dedicated, and he shall not dispute this matter further; but if Demetrius himself violates any of the written and agreed terms with my son, he shall likewise pay to my same son, necessarily, as penalty for breach of agreement, three talents of silver of old currency without any additional charge or legal quibble, according to the law of guarantee, because we have made these agreements on these terms.
This agreement is valid, written in duplicate, of which I have one copy alone and you have one alone, and upon being questioned, I have acknowledged it. (Year) 14 of Emperor Caesar Publius Licinius Gallienus Germanicus Maximus Persicus Maximus, Pious, Fortunate Augustus, Mecheir 29.
