Description

Letter concerns sundry domestic matters.
Translation: Many greetings. Your father already told you, when you were leaving, to go to Moros and see what he says about Antinoe, and send us word again tomorrow. But we will begin the work, for as soon as we make haste to set ourselves to it we can finish it completely (?); so send us word about this. Go and get your veil from the fuller's … Find out from Moros what he wants us to buy at Antinoe, and send us word, and if Moros has any business let him come up here and do it. Do not neglect any of the work. Take the tunic from Thaesis, and give her the mantle and the bracelet.
