Fragmentary account from Oxyrhynchus listing quantities of beef, mutton and pork, in pounds, supplied by named individuals (several of them women) and grouped by villages such as Palosis, Teis, Dositheos and Sesphtha.

In English machine translation

[1] […] Dioskorous, wife of […] of beef, 126 1/2 pounds […] (Village) of Palosis, the aforesaid (pounds). Arilla, wife of Valerianus, of mutton, […] pounds […] which, of pork […] (Village) of Teis, the aforesaid (pounds).

[2] […] […] […] Asklatarios (?) […] (Village) of Sesphtha, the aforesaid (pounds). Sarapas […] of mutton, 190 1/2 pounds […] (Village) of Sesphtha, the aforesaid (pounds).

The village names stand in the genitive with 'the aforesaid' (pounds), apparently totals credited to each village. The fraction after '3' under Didyme is uncertain.
