Satornilos
to
Aphrodous
,
his
mother
,
very
many
greetings
.
Before
all
things
I
pray
for
your
health
and
prosperity
.
I
wish
you
to
know
that
I
sent
you
three
letters
this
month
.
I
have
received
in
full
the
monthly
allowances
which
you
sent
to
me
by
Iulius
and
a
basket
of
olives
by
the
lad
of
Iulius
.
I
wish
you
to
know
that
another
male
child
has
been
born
to
me
,
whose
name
is
Agathos
Daimon
.
The
gods
willing
,
if
I
find
an
opportunity
of
putting
my
plan
into
effect
I
am
coming
to
you
with
letters
.
I
wish
you
to
know
that
it
is
now
three
months
since
I
came
to
Pselkis
,
and
I
have
not
yet
found
an
opportunity
to
come
to
you
.
I
was
afraid
to
come
just
now
because
they
say
:
that
the
prefect
is
on
the
road
,
lest
he
take
the
letters
from
me
and
send
me
back
to
the
troops
,
and
I
incur
the
expense
in
vain
.
But
I
wish
you
to
know
that
if
another
two
months
pass
and
I
do
not
come
to
you
before
the
month
Hathyr
I
have
eighteen
more
months
of
sitting
ingarrison
until
I
enter
Pselkis
again
and
come
to
you
.
All
those
who
come
will
bear
witness
to
you
how
I
seek
daily
to
come
.
If
you
wish
to
see
me
a
little
,
I
wish
it
greatly
and
pray
daily
to
the
gods
that
they
may
quickly
give
me
a
good
chance
to
come
.
Everything
in
the
army
runs
with
the
favorable
chance
.
If
I
have
the
opportunity
I
am
coming
to
you
.
Take
care
of
my
children
'
s
pigs
for
me
so
that
if
my
children
come
they
may
find
them
.
At
the
next
opportunity
please
send
to
Ioulas
,
the
son
of
Iulius
,
whatever
allowance
you
can
,
and
let
him
be
as
a
son
of
mine
,
even
as
you
love
me
and
I
[
love
]
my
children
.
If
his
brother
is
at
leisure
send
him
to
me
at
once
so
that
I
may
send
my
children
and
their
mother
to
you
by
him
.
[
Send
]
me
an
extra
jar
of
olives
for
a
friend
of
mine
;
do
not
fail
to
[
do
]
so
.
You
know
that
whatever
you
give
to
Iulius
he
brings
me
,
which
he
indeed
promised
me
to
do
.
Write
to
me
[
whatever
]
he
does
.
Salute
Sokmenios
and
his
children
and
[
.
.
.
]
and
Sabinus
and
Thaisas
and
her
children
and
my
brothers
and
my
sister
Tabenka
and
her
husband
and
her
relations-in-law
.
And
write
to
me
if
she
has
had
a
child
.
Salute
Tasokmenis
,
my
lady
sister
,
and
Sambas
and
Soueris
and
her
[
children
]
and
Sambous
and
all
the
relations
and
friends
,
[
each
by
name
]
.
Gemella
salutes
you
all
,
as
do
Didymarion
and
the
[
newly-born
]
Agathos
Daimon
and
Epiktetos
.
Salute
Gemellus
[
and
.
.

]
the
wife
of
[

.
And
it
was
no
great
matter
[

I
pray
for
health
to
you
all
