I, Frange, am writing and greeting and saluting the sweetness of the fruits (?) of his beloved sister, my God-loving, faithful Sie.
I am amazed at you, because people come in and people go out. I have put the matter to you: send me a measure of salt and a measure of prj (?). You have not sent them until now. May the Lord bless you.
If it is your wish, this is how you will do it(?) […] pray for me.

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.
