- Translation
- Valerianus to Sokrates, greeting. The assistant with whom we deposited the money says that he has given it to the collector so that he might turn it over to you. And because the festival is approaching, during which probably both you and the collector will come upcountry, I did nothing more. Do you then get in touch with the collector . . . .
- (Verso) To Sokrates.
