Δημέας Ζήνωνι χαίρειν. εἰ τῶι τε σώματι ἔρρωσαι
καὶ τὰ λοιπά σοι κατὰ νοῦν ἐστιν, εὖ ἂν ἔχοι· ὑγίαινον δὲ
καὶ αὐτός. ἀφώκνησα παραγενέσθαι διὰ τὸ μήτε σέ πω
παρεῖναι μήτε γεγραφέναι μοι μηθέν. νῦν οὖν καλῶς
5ποιήσεις γράψας μοι εἰ παραγένωμαι καὶ εἴ σοι εὔκαιρον
γέγονεν μνησθῆναι Ἀπολλωνίωι περὶ ὧν σοι ἐνετειλάμην.
εὐτύχει.
Ζήνωνι.
