To King Ptolemy, greetings. Tham[...] I am wronged by Chaiapios and Pasitos, her husband, in the city of Crocodilopolis. For on the seventh day of the month, in the fifteenth year, after an insult was given to me by them in the small tavern in Memphis, I was left abandoned. Her husband assaulted me, too, and forced me later to pay the amount written [..] drachmas, and as I was walking by, they insulted me by striking me with their fists wherever they could hit my body, and they [tore] my cloak. Therefore, I beg you, King, if it seems good to you, to order the general Afthonetos to write to those concerned to investigate these matters, and if they are proven true, to ensure that justice be done according to what the general decides, so that having fled to you, O King, I may obtain justice. Farewell.
