Year 16 of Lucius Septimius Severus Pertinax and Marcus Aurelius Antoninus Pius, Augusti, and Publius Septimius Geta Caesar Augustus, Pharmouthi 20. The elders of the village of Soknopaiou Nesos paid, through Sotas son of Herieus, partner, for the estate formerly of Theoninus, for rent […] 132 drachmas, total 132 drachmas; for the receipt 1 drachma 3 1/2 obols. And on Pachon 19 the elders of the village of Soknopaiou paid, through Peeious, partner, for the estate formerly of Theoninus, for rent of sheep for year 16, 311 drachmas 3 obols, total 311 drachmas 3 obols; for the receipt 1 drachma 3 1/2 obols.

The date of 14 May corresponds to the second payment (Pachon 19); the first was made on Pharmouthi 20 (15 April). The ousia was an imperial estate formerly owned by Theoninus; the extra charge 'for the receipt' (symbolon) was a fee for issuing the receipt.
