of the one at the water-wheel (?)
for the allowance (?) of my animals, barley 5 artabas
for completing the public (dues in) barley 1 1/3 (?) artabas
to the monastery of Oryr (?), barley 5 artabas
(total) barley 17 artabas, 3 matia
Only the last five lines of the account survive; the reading of the second figure (1 1/3 or 1 and a fraction) and the monastery name are uncertain. The organon is probably an irrigation machine (water-wheel).
