[r] Θερμουθᾶς Ἀπολιναρίῳ τῷ ἀδελφῷ πλεῖστα χαίρειν. γιγνώσκειν σε θέλω ἐγὼ καὶ Οὐαλερία, ἐὰν Ἡρωὶς τέκῃ, εὐχόμεθα ἐλθεῖν πρὸς σέ. δεῖ γάρ. θέλομεν ἐνέγκαι Δημητροῦν καταπλεῦσαι σὺν τῇ μητρὶ αὐτῆς. γράφεις μοι, ὅτι σύνθες σου τὰς χεῖρας Ζοιδοῦτι · οὐδὲν βλέπομεν αὐτὴν πεποιηκέναι, οὐδὲν εἰσεώρακεν εἰ μὴ τὸν τόκον τοῦ χαλκοῦ οὗ δέδωκας αὐτῇ. δέδωκας δέκα στατῆρας τοῖς τοῦ πράκτορος τῆς Κερκεσούχω καὶ ὡς εἴρηκάς μοι περὶ Ταήσεως, οὐδὲν ἔλαβα παρʼ αὐτῆς. μαρτυρήσει σοι Διδυμάριν, ὅτι ἔλεγεν Ταῆσις · οὐδὲν ἐγὼ δίδω Θερμουθᾶτι, ὅτι εἴρηκεν Ζωιδοῦς · μὴ δίδε αὐτῇ. σὺ οἶδες σὺν τῇ ἀδελφῇ σοι ὡς ἔγραψες Ἡρᾶτι τουνειν τιτοσσεν ἡμῶν, ἵνα διακονήσῃ ἡμῖν · εὐχαριστῶμεν αὐτῷ. ἀσπάζεται Λογγινία, ἀσπάζεταί σε καὶ Ζοΐδα τὴν ἀδελφὴν αὐτῆς, ἀσπαζόμεθα Σερῆνον, ἀσπαζεταί σε Ἡρωὶς καὶ οἱ ἐν οἴκῳ πάντες κατʼ ὄνομα. ἔρρωσο [v] ἀπόδος Ἀπολιναρίῳ ἀπὸ Οὐαλερίας καὶ Θερμουθᾶτος

ThermouthasThermouthis to Apolinarius, her brother, greetings. I want you to know, both Valeria and I, that if Herois gives birth, we wish to come to you. It is necessary. We want to bring and launch Demetroun with her mother. You write to me that you entrust your hands to Zoidos. We see nothing done by her, nothing has been seen except the payment of the copper which you gave her. You gave ten staters to the agents of Kerkesoucha and, as you have said to me about Taiasis, I received nothing from her. Didymarin will testify for you that Taiasis was saying: I give nothing to Thermouthas, because Zoidos has said: Do not give her. You know therefore how you wrote to Hera about [us], to assist us; we thank you for him. Longinia greets you, as does Zoida the sister of hers. We greet Serinos, Herois greets you and all those in the household by name. Farewell. Deliver to Apolinarius from Valeria and Thermouthas.
