| Support/Dimensions | 1 papyrus ; 8.1 x 7.4 cm. |
| Condition | This papyrus is a part of a single column of a roll. The papyrus is light-colored, thin and smooth. |
| Lines | 1-16 |
| Recto/Verso | Source of description: Recto |
| Hands | Upper and lower margins are lost, and only five of the sixteen lines are perfect. The lines whose length can be determined contain from 16 to 20 letters. The writing is a neat but not very regular book-hand, whichmay be assigned to the latter half of the second century A.D. A noteworthy feature is the breadth of the letters. In the case of the round letters epsilon, theta, omikron, sigma, it so perceptibly exceeds the height as to give them a flattened appearance. Ypsilon appears twice in a V shape, three times in the Y shape, with the stem turned slightly to the right. The spelling is correct. Iota adscript is admitted in l. 10 (eokei). There are no accents or other reading signs, and no marks of punctuation. |

(from l. 8): ". . . but the phantom also signed (to me) to thrust, and seemed to urge me on. So, cheerfully and gladly, as if killing an enemy, I slew myself. When I had fallen and died, I recognized the phantom. It was Seueris and . . ."
