A small fragment of a Coptic ostracon from Thebes, probably the end of a letter, with a farewell formula 'in the Lord' and the name Maria. Too little survives to identify the subject.

In English machine translation

[…] […] … […] I […] […] you […] […] very much. […] [Farewell] in the Lord. […] Maria […]enos […]

The letter genre rests on the restored farewell formula 'be well in the Lord', which commonly closes Coptic letters.

Working translation of the DDbDP edition, made with Claude Opus 5.5 from the edition and the catalogue records shown below. It has not been reviewed by a papyrologist: check the edition before citing. Restorations follow the edition; […] marks lost text and (?) an uncertain reading.
