οὐκ οἶδα δὲ πόθεν ἠμέλησας γράψαι καὶ σημᾶναί μοι τὴν ταχίστην ἢ διʼ ἀνθρώπου ἢ διὰ παιδός τινος τοῦ σχολαστικοῦ ἀνερχομένου πρὸς ἡμᾶς τὴν ὑγιείαν σου καὶ ἂνκἂν οὔκ εἰμι παρὰ σοὶ τῷ σώματι, ἀλλʼ οὖν ψυχῇ καὶ οὐ γράψαι μοι, ὅπως μάθωμάθωμάνθω τὴν ὑγείανὑγιείαν σου. τὴν σωτηρίαν δ οἶδα γὰρ τὴν προαίρεσίν σου ἐν ἅπασι. διὰ τοῦτο ἐχρησάμην πρῶτον μὲν κατὰ θεὸν μνῆσαίμνησθαί μουμοι, ἔπειτα δὲἐπεὶ τάδε σημᾶναι

About this record's data
  • From the source institution — accession, description, dimensions, and dating are as catalogued by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
  • AI-inferred — the image-analysis panel (deities, names, signs) is machine-generated and may be wrong.
  • Approximate location — most map points are plotted at the site centroid, not the exact findspot.
  • Inferred links — cross-references marked with a match method other than explicit-source-field were matched by us, not stated by the source.
  • Inherited across the Trismegistos spine — a Trismegistos ID names one ancient text, and papyrology splits that text's description across databases: the edition in one, the date and provenance in another, the physical papyrus in a third. Fields tagged via … on this page were read from a sibling record under the same TM number, not asserted by Papyri.info — DDbDP (Duke Databank of Documentary Papyri) — text.
