Letter CXVIII. 2393 To Jovinus, Bishop of Perrha . 2394 You owe me a good turn.  For I lent you a kindness, which I ought to get back with interest;—a kind of interest, this, which our Lord does not refuse.  Pay me, then, my friend, by paying me a visit.  So much for the capital; what of the increment?  It is the fact of the visit being paid by you, who are a man as much superior to me, as fathers are better than children. 2393     Placed at the end of 372 or the beginning of 373. 2394     The mss. vary between Jovinus and Jobinus.  cf . Theodoret, Ecc. Hist . iv. 13.
