Ἀσίων τὴν τύχην ἑαυτοῦ ἐχλεύασεν καὶ οὐχὶ τὴν ἐμὴν ἐάσας τὸ χωρίον εἰς ἔρημον· ἀρκεσθεὶςἀρκεσθει γὰρ ὑπὲρ τῆς γυναικὸς δείκνυδίγνου ὥστε τὰ τέκνα αὐτῆς ἐνέγκαι εἰς ἀμπελουργίαν τοῦ χωρίου. εἰδὼς οὖν ὅτι χρείαχρία μού ἐστιν ἐπὶ τῆς πόλεως μάλιστα διὰ τὰ δημόσια καὶ τὰ ἄλλα, σπούδασον κα τʼ αὐτὴν τὴν ῥοπὴν καταναγ κάσαικαταναγκάσε Ἀσίωνα ὥστε τὴν παράστασιν τῆς γυναικὸς ποιῆσαι μετὰ καὶ τῶν τέ κνων αὐτῆς. καὶ τὸν γαμ βρὸν δὲ ἀπόστειλονἀπόστιλον ἅμα αὐτῶν πρὶν τοῦ με τὴν ὁρμὴν ποιῆσαι ἐπὶ τὴν πόλιν ἵνα δυνηθῶ τυπῶ σαι τὸ χωρίον κατὰ λόγον πρὶν ὁδεῦσαι. μετὰ στρε βλώσεως οὖν ἀπόστειλονἀπόστιλον Ἀσίωνα ἅμα αὐτῶν. ἐρρῶσθαί σε εὔχομαι πολλοῖς χρόνοις κύριέ μου υἱέ. παράσχου Ἰσὰκ Φανβαρτὸν εἰς συμπλήρωσινσυνπληρωσει μετὰ στρεβλώσεως μεθόδευσον Ἑρμίαν τὰ δύο διπλᾶ Ἀθανασίου ἐπικου

About this record's data
  • From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
  • AI-inferred — the image-analysis panel (deities, names, signs) is machine-generated and may be wrong.
  • Approximate location — most map points are plotted at the site centroid, not the exact findspot.
  • Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
  • Inherited across the Trismegistos spine — a Trismegistos ID names one ancient text, and papyrology splits that text's description across databases: the edition in one, the date and provenance in another, the physical papyrus in a third. Fields tagged via … on this page were read from a sibling record under the same TM number, not asserted by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
