In English machine translation

[… 12 lines lost …] for which I have also received a receipt. Year 6 of Lucius Septimius Severus Pius Pertinax Caesar the lord and of Marcus Aurelius Antoninus, designated Emperor, Mecheir 11.

Only the closing line and dating formula survive; the nature of the dues comes from the catalogue title, not the surviving text. Caracalla appears as 'designated Emperor', a title used in early 198.

It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
