κυρίῳ μου ἀδελφῷ Εὐδαίμονι
πολλὰ χαίρειν καὶ εὖ πράττειν.
πρὸ μὲν πάντων εὔχομαί σε ὑγιαίνειν καὶ ὁλοκληρεῖν παρʼ οἷς ἐπιξενοῦμαι θεοῖς. ἐπεὶ μακράν σου γέγονα, μεριμνᾷς περὶ τῆς φιλίας
ἡμῶν. ἐγὼ δὲ οὐδὲν πέπονθα εἰς ὄνομα τῆς φιλίας ἡμῶν· ἐὰν
γὰρ ἀκούσω τὸ ὄνομά σου, οὐκ ἀμελῶ. πᾶν οὖν ποίησον, κύριέ μου
ἄδελφε, σπούδασαι ὧδε ἐλθεῖν

To my lord brother Eudaimon, many greetings and good fortune.
Before all things I pray that you are healthy and whole, before the gods among whom I am staying as a stranger. Since I have been far from you, you are anxious about our friendship. But I have suffered nothing in the name of our friendship; for if I hear your name, I do not neglect it. So do everything, my lord brother, to hurry to come here.

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 30602 (see that record)
