πλη καὶ Ἡδύλος ὁ παρὰ σοῦ επακεν· οὐ γὰρ μετρίως περισπᾶται ὑπʼ αὐτοῦ εἰσπρασσομένη. ἀξιῶἀξιοι δέ σε καὶ Ζωίλωι γράψαι ἀποδοῦναι αὐτῆι τὴν τιμὴν τῶν σκευῶν τῶν δεδομένων Ειρει, ὅπως ἔχηι ἀποκαταστῆσαι αὐτῶι ὅσα ὁμόλογα προσοφείλει. εἰ γὰρ μὲν οὖν μὴ προσώφειλεν εἰς τὸ βασιλικὸν ἃ δεῖ αὐτὴν διορθώσασθαι, ὡς καὶ σὺ ἐπαινεῖς, καὶ ταῦτα ἂν ἀφῆκεν ἀπο λέσθαι πρὸς τῆι λοιπῆιλοιπη ἀκληρίαι μᾶλλον ἢ σοὶ ἀηδῆ φαίνεσθαι. καίτοι γε ὑπολαμβάνω καὶ δίκαια καὶ εὐγνώμονα ἀξιοῦν αὐτήν, ἀλλʼ οὐθὲν ἧσσον οὐ δύναται τῶν φιλανθρώπων τυχεῖν, ἀλλʼ ἕλκεται τρίτον ἤδη μῆνα.

About this record's data
  • From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
  • AI-inferred — the image-analysis panel (deities, names, signs) is machine-generated and may be wrong.
  • Approximate location — most map points are plotted at the site centroid, not the exact findspot.
  • Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
  • Inherited across the Trismegistos spine — a Trismegistos ID names one ancient text, and papyrology splits that text's description across databases: the edition in one, the date and provenance in another, the physical papyrus in a third. Fields tagged via … on this page were read from a sibling record under the same TM number, not asserted by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
