Aurelius Paulion, soldier of the Second Legion of Auxiliaries, greetings to his brother Heron and sister Plouto and mother Seinouphi, the bread vendor and mistress. I wish you to be healthy night and day, and I perform your supplication before all the gods. As for me, I do not cease writing to you. But you do not have me in mind. Nevertheless, I do my duty to you by writing always, and I do not cease to bring and keep you in my heart. But you never wrote to me about your well-being, how you are. I am concerned for you because you have received many letters from me and never wrote back, so I may know how you are while I am away in Pannonia. You hold me thus as a stranger who has left, and rejoice when I am in the army. Yet, I have not undergone any initiation into the army, but I regret having left you. I have written you six letters; and I hope you will take it into account and receive a letter from the governor, and I will come to you so you may know me to be your brother. For I didn't leave you for the army, but I reckon that as I am writing to you, none of you regards my word. But the neighbor sees me as your brother. And you write to me and respond to my writing, if any of you should come to this place, send back to me. Greet Aphrodisios and Atemisian and his daughter and her husband and Orsinouphis and the sons of his mother's sister Xenophon and [Uenoph] and even [Aurelious], give this letter to the sons and Seinouphi the bread vendor, relatives of Paulion the soldier of the Second Legion of Auxiliaries of Lower Pannonia.
