[…]
To Aurelius Ploution, secretary of the grain dole,
from Aurelius Apollonios also called Nemesi[…], son of […] Sarapion, and however I am styled. Being an Alexandrian and having a domestic house […] here in the glorious and most glorious city of the Oxyrhynchites, and it having been resolved in the same most excellent council here that the Alexandrians should share in the gift of grain, I myself, having my hearth in the quarter of North Dromos, submit this application, appending at the same time the copy of the hearth-registration, so that in conformity with those like me I too may share in the gift of the grain dole. Farewell.
Year […] of Imperator Caesar Lucius Domitius Aurelianus Pius Felix Augustus and Julius Aurelius […]
