[recto]
I, Frange, the most humble, the dead man who lives in the mountain of Djeme, writes greeting his beloved lord, the good brother Patermoute, and his wife.
I greet also the brothers who are with you (?), Apa Victor and your family (?). Farewell in the Lord.
The Holy Trinity.
[verso]
My brother Patermoute, as soon as the tablet reaches your hands, put everything aside, take two masour-measures of wages (?) and come to me tomorrow, quickly, quickly, for it is a necessity, very, very much, so that I may find you for the matter that is pressing (?).

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.
