Horion to his dearest Heroninos, greetings.
I have now received from you, for which I shall render account, thirty-two single-measure jars of wine,

I pray for your health, dearest.

A monochoron is a wine jar holding one chous-measure; the term has no exact English equivalent. Though framed as a letter, the text functions as a receipt.
