παρὰ Ἀπιανοῦ.
καὶ πρὸ ἡμερῶν ἐπέστειλα ἵνα ἀρτίδια καλὰ ποιήσηται καὶ ἀναπέμψηται ἡμῖν καὶ οὐκ ἐποιήσατε καὶ ἐχθὲς ἥτις ἐστὶν ιε
συντυχὼν τῶι ὀνηλάτῃ
Σωκρα τὰ αὐτὰ αὐτῷ ἐνετειλάμην. ἐπεὶ δὲ οἶδα ὅτι
καὶ ἀνάγκης καὶ ὑπομνήσεως χρῄζετε διὰ τοῦτο
καὶ νῦν ὑμῖν ἐπέστειλα
περὶ τούτου. καὶ λαγῳδίων δὲ χρεία ἐστὶν τοπαρίου. καὶ ἂν ὀλίγον. τοπάριον
ὀφείλετε βαλεῖν· ἄτοπον
γάρ ἐστιν αὐτοὺς ὠνεῖσθαι
τότε πᾶσι αὐτοὺς παρέχοντας. χρῄζουσι γὰρ
αὐτοῦ οἱ ἰατροὶ καὶ εἰς κολλύρια καὶ εἰς ἑτέρας ἰατρικὰς χρείας. ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι.
Εἰρηναίῳ φροντιστῇ.

From Appianus.
Some days ago too I wrote that you should make good loaves and send them up to us, and you did not do it; and yesterday, which was the 15th, meeting the donkey-driver Sokra(tes), I gave him the same instructions. But since I know that you need both compulsion and reminding, for this reason I have now written to you again about this. And there is also need of the little hares' ointment (?), the 'topárion'; even if only a little, you must put in a topárion. For it is absurd that they should buy it when they supply it to everyone. For the doctors need it both for eye-salves and for other medical purposes. I pray for your health.
To Eirenaios, the estate manager.
Year 5, Hathyr 16.

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.
