Transcription
[…]μετὰ πάσης ἐπιεικείας καὶ μονῆς καὶ ἐμφανείας
καὶ μὴ ἀπολιμπανόμενον· ἐὰν δὲ ἀφυστερήσῃ
καὶ μὴ παραστήσω, ἐγὼ αὐτὸς τὸν ὑπὲρ αὐτοῦ
λόγον ὑποστήσομαι ἢ ἔνοχος εἴην τῷ θείῳ
ὅρκῳ καὶ τῷ περὶ τούτου κινδύνῳ, καὶ ἐπερωτηθεὶς ὡμολόγησα.
Αὐρήλιος Σόϊς Παήσιος ὁ προκίμενος
ἐγγυῶμαι καὶ παραστήσω ὡς πρόκειται.
διʼ ἐμοῦ Σιλβανοῦ ἐγράφη.Translations (1)
[…] with all good conduct and residence and presence, and not absenting himself. But if he fails to appear and I do not produce him, I myself will assume responsibility on his behalf, or may I be liable to the divine oath and to the peril concerning it; and having been asked the formal question, I assented.
I, Aurelius Sois son of Paesis, the aforementioned, stand surety and will produce him as stated above.
Written by me, Silvanus.

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.
- date — from HGV-meta, TM-Text 33483 (see that record)
