It is necessary to say something. For I say that this should be considered, so that
no one of those who are to come may be recorded
among the annual youths
who are being registered for the public revenue
may diminish, and the majority
of the Alexandrians, being pure,* existing as unprovided and unproductive people, may defile; if
anyone were to become barbarous* acting contrary to reason or by a private reason or
by some agent shaking people, the council*
may assist your commissioner with those who are weak and not
through desolation may help what is to be kept by you* from
the people who happen to be different*· Moreover, if it should be necessary to send an embassy to you,
this is chosen* the suitable ones and [neither a naked one]
may go out*⟦neither
anyone* nor anyone unfit may flee from the service of the homeland, we demand(?)
the council to give annually the responsibilities of the matters
the secretary of the council is well [
appointed* for a time*]
this time is given by the laws, master(?)
((unintelligible)) Caesar said [
concerning these things I will take(?)
to Alexandria(?)
