A short order for the delivery of wine from the monastery of Bawit, naming Abraham, apparently son of Papleoou, as recipient: one aporrhyma and one large measure of wine, handed over through Papnouthios. It is dated Phaophi 15 of the 12th indiction, in the 8th century AD.
In English machine translation
Abraham son of Papleoou (?):
of wine, 1 aporrhyma, one; of wine, 1 large (measure), one; through Papnouthios.
† Month Phaophi 15, indiction 12 †
The phrase after Abraham's name is in Coptic, 'the (son) of Papleoou', i.e. his patronymic. An aporrhyma is a wine measure or vessel, and the 'large' (mega) is likewise a jar size; neither has an exact English equivalent.
