In English machine translation

In the consulship of Flavius Constantius and Valerius Maximus, the most illustrious prefects, Hathyr […] To Septimius Zenius, the most perfect prefect […] from Aurelia Apoll[…] […] […] of the Oxyrhynchites […] […]

Only the dating clause, address and sender survive, so the petition's subject is unknown. The consuls of 327 are styled prefects here, as was usual in dating formulas of this year.
