εξν τὴν ἐπιστολὴν τῆς σῆς ποθεινῆς λαμπρότητος, διʼ ἧς ε αὐτῇ στιχαροφαιλόνιονστιχαροφελωνιν εἰς χρείαν αὐτῆς διὰ τὴν τῶν ἀξιωμάτων ο οἶδεν ὁ δεσπότης χειμονικὸν φαιλόνιονφελωνιν περισσὸν οὐ κερατι πληροῦν· ἐὰν δὲ ὡς ἔγραψεν ἡ σὴ λαμπρότης πρὶν ἂν ἐδαπάνησεν εἰς τὴν ἐμφανείαν τῶν ἀξιωμάτων, εὑρίσκω ὅτι πάση ἐρώτευσεν ἐπεί τʼ οἱ γεοεις ἐμφανισασνε ἀξιώματα πλε καὶ ἴδιον ἐδαπάνησεν ενόμενος θειο περὶ ερ τοῦ Θεου τέλειος, εἰ καὶ δύνασαι τὰ αὐτὰ σεαυτὸν διοικη ως μη δοξον μηδὲ εἰς τοῦτό σε λυπεῖν· ἰδοὺεἰδοὺ ἐποίησα ἐπιστολὴν πρὸς Ἰουλιανὸν τὸν εὐδοκιμώτατον ἱματιοπράτην ἵνα δόσῃ σοι στιχαροφαιλόνιονστιχαροφελωνιν καὶ πιστεύσῃ σοι τὴν τιμὴν αὐτοῦ ἕως ὅτε σὺν Θεῷ γένωμαιγένομαι κατὰ τὴν πατρίδα· καί πως ἵνα ὁ Θεὸς οὕτω τὰ κατὰ τὴν ἐμὴν εὐτελείαν διοικήσῃ ἵνα δυνήθω τὰς πάντων ὑμῶν κελεύσεις ἀποπληρῶσαι καὶ περαειον χῶρον οντος τοὺς δὲ χοίρους ὀν

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.
