Θέων Ἀπολιναρίῳ τῶι τιμιωτάτῳ χαίρειν. εἰ μὴ ἐμάθομεν σὺν θεοῖς σε κα λῶς ἐσχηκέναι μεθʼ ἃ γράφεις πεπονθέναι, πάντα ἂν καταλιπόν τες ἐσπεύσαμεν πρὸς σέ, σοῦ γὰρ τιμιώτερον οὐδέν ἐστιν. ἀλλὰἀλλαὶ καὶ ἐνθάδε ὄντες εὐχό μεθά σοι ὑγίειανὑγείαν ἀξίῳ ὄντι. Ἀλέξανδρος ὁ κτίστης, παρα γενόμενος εὐθέως με τʼ ἄφιξίν σου καὶ καθηγηθεὶςκαθηκηθεὶς ὡς καὶ διʼ αὐτὸν ἄλλας ἡμέρας ἐπέμεινας παρʼ ἡμῖνἡμεῖν ἵνʼἵνʼ αὐτῷ συνχρονήσῃς, ἐλυπήθη ὅτι σε οὐ κατέλαβεν. καθʼ ὥραν δὲ σοῦ σὺν ἡμῖνὑμεῖν ἐμέμνητο σς ἡμᾶς τιμήσας μετὰ πλείσ της σπουδῆς κομισθῇ. τὴν οὖν τιμὴν δήλωσόν μοι ἵνα Ἀπολλωνίῳ τῷ ἀδελφῷ μετα βάλωμαι. ἀσπαάζονταί σε οἱ παρʼ ἡμῶν πάντες καὶ αἱ παρʼ ἡμῶν πᾶσαι. ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι, τιμιώτατε αρως.
