Translation into English

To Leonidas, the royal secretary of Arsinoitus, of the portion of Themistes,
who is succeeding and concerning the strategy of the portion.
From Isidorus, son of Nicanor of Sarapion. I have rented
Aurelius Antoninus Caesar,
of the lord and god of our Lord, from Sabinus, who is also the gymnasiarch of Thrace,
regarding the village of Theadelphia
of the portion of Themistes, of the residential land of the estate, eighty
eight or however many there may be for four years and the time
having been fulfilled and given to me.
I request that you send me the taxes and exemptions in one
of your servants to transfer this
equal to that of the sister and heir of Thracides,
daughter of Sabinus, who is the gymnasiarch, so that they may know
about the lease and also to be placed
in the contract
so that the public farmer may be able to
manage many lands.

To Leonides, royal scribe of the Arsinoite nome, division of Themistos, who is succeeding also to the duties of the strategia of the division.
From Isidoros, son of Nikandros, grandson of Sarapion.
I leased [...] belonging to Aurelius Antoninus Caesar, our lord and god Verus, from Sabinus also called Thrakides, who had served as gymnasiarch, near the village of Theadelphia in the division of Themistos, a residential allotment of eighty-eight arouras, or however many there may be, for four years. Now that the time has been completed and I have returned the rents and special charges, I request you to instruct one of your assistants to transfer this same property to the sister and heir of Thrakides, daughter of Sabinus who had served as gymnasiarch, so that they may know of my lease and that she herself may be entered [...] so that I, being a public farmer of many lands, may be able [...] (artabas) of wheat [...]
