APIS Translation (English)

Plousia to my brother Syros, greeting. I make obeisance on your behalf before the lord Sarapis and the gods who share his temple. When I learned that you are in good health, I gave thanks to all the gods. You will say to Par[...]: "We exerted ourselves for the man who brought the letter, so that he might have his livelihood until you come to us. And if you decide not to come, send us a message, inasmuch as we waited in the midst of the strife for . . . of the things that went into the storeroom. And when I have learned with certainty that you are well, I shall be relieved of worry." In addition, I beg this of you also, brother, [- - -];;(Verso);;Deliver to Syros from [Plousia]
