    1 Ἀπολλώνιος Ζήνωνι χαίρειν. ὁ βασιλεὺς συνέτασσεν ἡμῖν
    2 δισπορῆσαι τὴν γῆν. ὡς ἂν οὖν ἐχθερίσηις τὸν πρώιον σῖτον,
    3 εὐθέως πότισον τὴν γῆν ἀπὸ χερός*, ἐὰν δὲ μὴ δυνατὸν ἦι,
    4 κηλώνεια ἐπιστήσας πλείονα οὕτω πότιζε, μὴ πλείους δὲ
    5 πέντε ἡμερῶν σύσχηις τὸ ὕδωρ, καὶ καταψύξας εὐθέως
    6 κατάσπειρε τὸν τρίμηνον πυρόν. γράψον δὲ καὶ πρὸς ἡμᾶς
    7 πότε δύνασαι θερίζειν τὸν σῖτον.
    8 ἔρρωσο. (ἔτους) λ, Δίου ιγ, Ἁθὺρ γ.
