γλυκύτατε φίλτατε πάτερ, καὶ εὔχομαι τῷ θεῷ ὁλοκλη ρεῖν σε καὶ εὐοδοῦσθαι καὶ ὑγιαίνον τάὑγιαινοτι σε ἀπολαβεῖν ἐν τοῖς ἰδίοις. καὶ γὰρ πρὸ τούτου σοι ἐδήλωσα λυπού μενος ἐπὶ τῇ ἐν ἡμῖν σου ἀπουσίᾳ, μήπως ὃ μὴ εἴηεἴοι σοι γένοιτο καὶ μὴ εὕρωμέν σου τὸ σῶμα. καὶ πρότερονγὰργὰρ πολλάκις σοι δηλόωδηλῶσαιδηλῶσαι σοι βουλόμενοςβούλομαι ὅτιβούλομαι ὅτι βλέπων εἰς τὸ ἀσύστατον σήμερον σημεῖον ἠθέλησασῆμά τι ἠθέλησασῆμα ἠ θέλησα ἐνχαράξαι σοι. καὶ νῦν γὰρ ἀκού ω ὅτι σφόδρα Ἡράκλειος ὁ νῦν ἐπίτρο πος ζητεῖ σε, καὶ ὑπονοοῦμαι ὅτι πάν τως πάλιν τί ποτε ἔχει πρὸς σέ. εἴ τί ποτε αὐτῷ χρεωστεῖς, καὶ τοῦτό γε βούλομαί σεσοι γνῶναι ὅτι ἐκόμισα πρὸς Γάειν σίτου ἀρτάβας δύο καὶ τῷ κυρίῳ καὶ ἀγαπητῷ πατρὶ Ἀπόλλωνι

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.
