APIS Translation (English)

Serapion to his dearest Potamon, greeting. Above all I think it is necessary to greet you through a letter. I urge you, dear, to write to me about the market in your district (?). For the market in the Oxyrhynchos district is less favourable, since ordinances of scrupulous officials arrive every day. I greet all your family and your master Apollonios, the exceptional friend.;Farewell.
