To Queen Cleopatra and King Ptolemy, to the gods, to the Saviors, greetings.
From Athenian Korramus, Idumaea, to whom I have entrusted the foreign agency in Memphis, the delivery of Apollonius' gift from the condemnation which I received from him in the year, likewise concerning the matters related to my brother Heliodorus, who is of the same father and mother, and all things concerning him, I wish to be done.
In Alexandria, at the time of the governor of Dionysius, concerning my orphaned children, I am in need of assistance regarding the matters of their upbringing and the necessary provisions for them.
I request a copy of the proceedings regarding the matters of the orphaned children, and I hope to receive a favorable response.
