Dionysios son of Diogenes, grandson of Theon, of the Eirenophylakian tribe and the Althaian deme, to Attis son of Attis also called Apollonios, from the city of Oxyrhynchus, greetings. I have received from you the half share falling to you of the money rent for the past 12th year of Hadrian Caesar the lord, for the land which you farmed together with Apollonios son of Epaphroditos under a lease formerly from Dionysia daughter of Herakleides and her father, near Paomis, 50 arouras, and the further 1 1/4 1/8 aroura found by survey, which were bought by me together with other arouras from the aforementioned persons; and further also your half share of the 8 (jars of wine as) libation stipulated by the lease, the whole rent being at the rate of 28 drachmas per aroura; and I make no claim against you about anything at all up to the present day. This receipt in my own hand, of Dionysios, is valid. Year 13 of Imperator Caesar Traianus Hadrianus Augustus, Phaophi 30.

The tribe and deme names (Eirenophylakios, Althaieus) mark Dionysios as a citizen of Alexandria. 'Spondē' (libation) was a customary extra payment in leases; the commodity of the 8 units is not specified in the text.
