Letter
CXCII.
2678
To Sophronius the Master
.
With
your extraordinary zeal in
good deeds you have written to me to say that you yourself owe me
double thanks; first, for getting a letter from me, and secondly, for
doing me a service. What thanks, then, must not I owe you, both
for reading your most delightful words, and for finding what I hoped
for so quickly accomplished! The message was exceedingly
gratifying on its own account, but it gave me much greater
gratification from the fact that you were the friend to whom I owed the
boon. God grant that ere long I may see you, and return you
thanks in words, and enjoy the great pleasure of your
society.
