[…] […] in the suburbs of this city, in two localities, […] arouras […] […] more or less, with all their rights, for as long a time as you wish, from the coming [crops of the incoming] eleventh indiction, both of it and of the crops resulting from them, [of the pulses] three parts to belong to you, Valentinus, and one part to me, and of the hay [five parts to you and one part to me; and] I shall of necessity carry out the tasks for the cultivation of the same arouras, [all, without neglect and without reproach,] and I am to do the binding of all the hay; while all kinds of [draught animals and the advance] of seed and the cutting or plucking of the hay are the concern of you, the landowner, [with only the seed and the wage for threshing being deducted from the] common stock. […] I receive as my share, this hay I am to sell to you […] as is customary, 60 loads of hay; and it shall not be permitted to me […] nor shall you, Valentinus, seek to receive any customary payment concerning this. […] I, Aurelius Elias son of Hellas, vinedresser, the aforesaid, have leased the aforewritten [arouras] […] more or less, and in accordance with everything written above, as stated, and I have issued (this lease). […] of the city of the Arsinoites, being asked, I wrote on his behalf, he being present and illiterate. […] of the city, I witness this lease as stated. † Aurelius […] […]
