[r,ctr]
παρὰ Ἀλυπίου.
[r,A]
σὺν θεῷ φάναι προσδόκα ἡμᾶς τῇ κγ πρὸς σὲ γεινομένους. ἧς ὥρας οὖν λαμβάνεις μου τὰ γράμματα
τὸ βαλανεῖον παντὶ τρόπῳ ποίησον ὑποκαυθῆναι καὶ δοκοὺς εἰς αὐτὸ παρενεχθῆναι ποιήσας
καὶ ἄχυρον πανταχόθεν συλλέξας ἵνα θερμῶς λουσώμεθα χειμῶνος ὄντος. καὶ γὰρ προῃρήμεθα παρὰ σοὶ καταχθῆναι ἐπεὶ καὶ τὰ ὑπόλοιπα χωρίδια ἐπιθεωρεῖν μέλλομεν καὶ τὰ παρὰ
σοὶ διατάξαι. καὶ τὴν ἄλλην μέντοι πᾶσαν ὑπηρεσίαν φρόντισον ἔχειν, πρὸ δὲ πάντων
χοιρίδιον καλὸν διὰ τοὺς σὺν ἡμῖν ὄντας·
ἀλλὰ καλὸν πάλιν ἔστω μὴ ὡς πρώην καὶ
λεπτὸν καὶ ἄχρηστον. πέμψον δὲ καὶ ἐπὶ
τοὺς ἁλιέας ἵνα ἰχθὺν κομίσωσι ἡμῖν.
ἀπέστειλα δέ σοι γράμματα πρὸς Ὡρείωνα
[r,B]
ἵνα σοι ἀποστείλῃ χόρτου
δέσμας πεντακοσίας . καὶ
πάλιν αὐτῷ τὸν ἴσον ἀποδώσεις· τὰ γὰρ ἐργατικά
μου κτήνη χλωρὸν ἐσθίει. καὶ πάντως περισσότερον χλωρὸν χόρτον
ποίησον ἐνεχθῆναι
ἵνα καὶ αὐτὰ τὴν αὐτάρκη
τροφὴν ἔχῃ. πέμψον οὖν
ἐπὶ τὸν χόρτον πάντως
σήμερον. ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι.
σεσημείωμαι
Ἡρωνείνῳ φροντιστῇ.

[recto, center]
From Alypios.
[recto, A]
With God's help, expect us to be with you on the 23rd. So the moment you receive my letter, have the bath heated by every means, having beams brought in for it and having gathered chaff from everywhere, so that we may bathe warm, since it is winter. For we have chosen to put up at your place, since we are also going to inspect the remaining small estates and to arrange matters at yours. And take care to have all the [other] service ready, but above all a fine piglet for those who are with us; but let it be fine this time, not like the last one, both thin and useless. Send also to the fishermen so that they bring us fish. I have sent you a letter to Horion
[recto, B]
so that he may send you 500 bundles of hay. And you will give him back the same amount in return; for my working animals are eating green fodder. And by all means have more green fodder brought, so that they too may have sufficient food. So send for the hay without fail today. I pray for your health.
Signed.
To Heroninos, manager.
Year 3, Tybi 22

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.
