Σιμίας Διονυσίωι χαίρειν. Δωσίθεος ὁ οἰκονόμος ὑποτέταχεν ἡμῖν ἀντίγραφον
τῆς πρὸς σὲ παρ’ αὐτοῦ γεγραμμένης ἐπιστολῆς, ὑφ’ ἣν κατακεχώρισται καὶ τὸ κατ’ ἄνδρα
τοῦ προσηγμένου πυροῦ, ἵνα […] μὴ χορηγῆι ἐλασσόνων ἐκφορίων εἰς συμπλήρωσιν
τῆς ἐπιβολῆς τὰ γινόμενα τοῦ αἱροῦντος κεφαλαίου, οἰόμενος δεῖν τὰ συναχθησόμενα
ἐκ ταύτης γενήματα ἀσφαλισθῆναι μέχρι τοῦ πάντα τὰ εἰς τὸ βασιλικὸν ἐκπληρωθῆναι.
προνοήθητι οὖν ἐπιστρεφέστερον, ἵνα γένηται ἀκολούθως.
ἔρρωσο. ἔτους λδ Φαρμοῦθι κδ.Translations (1)
Simias to Dionysios, greeting. Dositheos the oikonomos has appended for us a copy of the letter written by him to you, under which is also registered the man-by-man list of the wheat brought in, so that [...] [does not] supply, from lower rents, toward the completion of the imposed assessment, the amounts [due] of the proportionate total, as he thinks that the produce to be collected from it must be secured until everything owed to the royal treasury has been paid in full.
Take care therefore with greater attention that it is done accordingly.
Farewell. Year 34, Pharmouthi 24.
