Letter from Eudaimon to his mother, grandmothers and Kyra about medical supplies TM 33122OxyrhynchosIV

I hastened now too to address you, having found an opportunity, praying to divine providence that you may receive my letter in good spirits and good health. For Heraklammon greatly troubled us when he came, because he says our sister Kyra fell ill; but we give thanks to divine providence, which everywhere and in all things helps us, that she too has recovered. Let her know that the linens of our sister Kyrilla have been cut, and if I find a trustworthy person coming, I am sending them, and the purple hooded cloak and the shoes. We have received the things from Helene the embroideress, and I found only 4 books in the double bag, but you wrote 'we sent 5'. We have also received everything else except only the jar of grease. So let our brother Theodoros make an effort to look for […] and find out about it […] jar; he supplied a jar of eye-salves instead of the grease. Make an effort to send me the bronze tablet, so that I may make other instruments, not the same ones, and the cupping-heater likewise, and the cupping vessels, so that I may make […]. [margin] Send also 3 pounds of eye-salves mixed from all […] astringents (?) and […] I may get other good […] [verso] Deliver to the surgery, from Eudaimon.
