τῆς βεβαιώσεως διὰ παντὸς πρὸς πᾶσαν βεβαίωσιν
ἐξακολουθούσης μοι τῷ πωλοῦντι καὶ μὴ ἐπελεύσεσθαί με μηδʼ ἄλλον ὑπὲρ ἐμοῦ ἐπὶ τὸν ὠνούμενον
μηδὲ ἐπὶ τοὺς παρʼ αὐτοῦ περὶ μηδενὸς τῆσδε τῆς
πράσεως τρόπῳ μηδενὶ. ἐὰν δὲ ἐπέλθω ἢ μὴ
βεβαιῶ, ἥ τʼ ἔφοδος ἄκυρος ἔστω καὶ προσαποτίσω ἢ
ὁ ὑπὲρ ἐμοῦ ἐπελευσόμενός σοι τῷ ὠνουμένῳ ἢ τοῖς παρά σου τά τε βλάβη καὶ δαπανήματα καὶ ἐπιτίμου ὡς ἴδιον χρέος διπλῆν τὴν
τιμὴν καὶ εἰς τὸ δημόσιον τὴν ἴσην καὶ μηδὲν ἧσσον ἡ πράσις κυρία· περὶ δὲ τοῦ ταύτα οὕτως ὀρθῶς καὶ καλῶς γενέσθαι ἐπερωτηθεὶς ὡμολόγησα.[…]

And concerning these things having been done thus rightly and properly, having been asked the formal question, I gave my assent. […]

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.
