(Translation: P. L. Bat. 25.50) ...and (free) from guarding public dikes and from everything else whatsoever and from all state taxes and compulsory cultivation up to and including the past nineteenth year, because from the current twentieth year the products of the property belong to you the buyer at whose charge lie also the payments of every kind from the same twentieth year. The sale, written in x copies, is valid, and I shall also make it for you through a public office without receiving anything else from you, though the taxes and the scribal fees are at your charge. To the question posed by you whether this is done rightly and fairly I have given my consent.
