In English machine translation

Aurelius Ammon, scholastikos (advocate), from Panopolis in the Thebaid. Since Flavius Eugenios, memorarius, and I, Ammon, made a written agreement jointly in the city of the Panopolitans concerning a certain matter, and I do not know why I accepted such a time limit in this agreement, namely that from the 27th of Hathyr of the past month, within 20 days, I should present myself at Alexandria […] giving security […] […] […] of the time limit I arrived in this splendid city of the Alexandrians, and I have delivered to you the document of the security declaration (diasphalismos), keeping an equal and identical copy of it with myself. I ask that it be, with your subscription, for security. In the consulship of Flavius Philippus, most illustrious prefect of the sacred praetorium, and Flavius Salia, most illustrious master of the cavalry, Choiak. I, Aurelius Ammon, give security as stated above.

This is the second version of a declaration addressed to Flavius Sisinnius, the katholikos; a memorarius was an imperial records official. The document was drafted in Alexandria but preserved in Ammon's archive found at Panopolis.
