In English machine translation
Philippos to his dearest Heroninos, greetings.
By all means hand over today to Dioskoros the phrontistes of […] the hay-cutting tools, so that the hay of the Theoxenis district does not remain uncut because of you.
I pray for your health, dearest.

A phrontistes was the manager of a local unit of a large estate; the name of Dioskoros' unit is illegible. Letters of the Heroninos archive date to the mid-3rd century AD, but no year is given here.
