Ptollarion, former gymnasiarch, and Patron, gymnasiarch-designate, both sons of Paulinus, former gymnasiarch, to Kronion the younger, son of Pakebkis, greetings. We have received from you the rents in kind and the money rents of the allotment which you farm for us, for the half shares belonging to us, near the village of Theogonis, the so-called allotment of Pyrrhos, for the fifth and sixth and also the seventh year of Antoninus Caesar the lord, the lease remaining valid. Year 7 of Antoninus Caesar the lord, Pharmouthi 18.

Ekphoria (rents in kind) and phoroi (money rents) are distinguished in the Greek. A kleros was a land allotment originally granted to a settler, here named after one Pyrrhos.
