In English machine translation
Horion to Papnoutios, his brother, greetings.
Provide to Makarios the cook, toward the completion of the three hundred and sixty, now also provide two hundred, 200 myriads of denarii only.
I, Horion, have signed.
A myriad is 10,000; the sums reflect the heavily inflated denarius accounting of the 4th century. Though framed as a letter, the text functions as a payment order.
