A short order from Serenos, a wine-steward, to Isidora of Patosaret, instructing her to supply 10 double jars of wine to the church or shrine of Saint Theonas as an offering for the sixth indiction. It was written on Thoth 20 at Oxyrhynchus in the Byzantine period.

† To the sister Isidora of Patosaret,
Serenos, wine-steward: provide
to holy Theonas for the offering (prosphora)
for the sixth indiction 10 double jars of wine,
total 10 double jars of wine only. Written on Thoth 20, through me,
Serenos, wine-steward.
"Holy Theonas" probably refers to a church or foundation dedicated to Saint Theonas at Oxyrhynchus; the prosphora is a pious offering for church use. The "double jar" (diplon) was a standard wine container of the period.
