Of the consulship of our lord Gratian, eternal Augustus, and of the most illustrious Flavius Merobau, in the month of Tybi, Aurelius Martyrius of Aphrodisius from the illustrious city of Oxyrhynchus, a tarasikarios, greets Aurelius Androgenes from the same city. I acknowledge that I have received from you your son Phoibammon to be employed by me in the art of the tarasikarios from the present month of Tybi until the month of Mesore of the current year, receiving from me for his daily wage thirty thousand silver denarii, and in the month of Pharmouthi of the same current year, to provide him with one new linen sticharion. And let it not be permitted for me to lose this, nor to withhold the wage that has been established before the completion of the time. If you wish, I will give it to you in the account of the chair and for the sake of the service of a thousand myriads of silver. And I too, in regard to the wage, let it not be permitted for me to do so before the completion of the time, providing you with a reason. The document is written simply, and when asked, I acknowledged it. Aurelius Martyrius, I have made this acknowledgment and I will return everything as it pertains. Aurelius Dorotheus wrote on behalf of him letters, not knowing. Through me, Dioscorus.
