To Sarapion of the successors and the sub-governor from Thauetos and Thaoutos, the twins of those serving in the great Sarapeion near Memphis. Previously, we have given you a memorandum regarding the non-receipt from the priests of what is due to us to be given annually for the necessary barley, after which you wrote to Mennides, the overseer, to give it to us. But since he has sent to Psindas, the overseer of the priests, he pays no heed, and we, in the meantime, are in danger of losing the sacred property while being caught in the middle of the marsh. Therefore, since it has been decreed by the royal authority to those in charge of the priests and to us, the barley from the year until the year, we neither receive the barley nor the due amount in its place from the sacred property, we have been deprived of the provisions of the cult, nor the provisions from Asclepius from the year. We beseech you with supplication, as you do not cease to assist us, and in these matters, having become a helper, we have called upon Psindas, the overseer of the priests, to compel him to give us immediately what is owed to us from the year of barley and the provisions from Asclepius, having deliberated. For we shall perform these services through you promptly in the sacred place. Farewell.
