1  ‘Ammonius to his dearest Aphrodisius, greeting. I received a letter bidding me send for the loaves on the 5th. I will accordingly send the donkeys to you on the 8th without fail. Please do your utmost to secure me the unguent of lentils; do not neglect this, lest we think you to have become all at once estranged towards us. Salute Thermion, your sister, and your children. Good-bye.’ Date.
