textpart

1  Kopres to his sister Sarapias, very many greetings. Before all else, I pray for your good health before the Lor(d) G(o)d. 6  I want you to know that we arrived on the 11th and it became known to us that people presenting themselves in court are being made to sacrifice and I made a power-of-attorney in favour of my brother 13  and so far we have accomplished nothing, but we instructed an advocate on the 12th (?), so that the case about the land could be brought in on the 14th. 20  If in the event that we accomplish anything, I’ll write to you. I’ve sent you nothing since I found Theodoros himself setting out. I’ll send them to you by another hand soon. 27  Write to us about the health of all of you and how Maximina has been and Asena. And if it’s possible let him (her?) come with your mother

32  so that his (her?) leukoma can be cured, because I’ve seen others cured myself. I pray that you are well; my best wishes to all our friends by name. Del(iver) to my sister, f(rom) Kopr(es) 99. (Translation: P. Parsons in M. Trapp, Letters (2003) 53-55)
