24. К епископу Транквилину 24
Machine translation from the original · Show original
My most honorable master, Bishop Seleucus, was brought here by love for us, and from here the desire for your love leads. It made him forget the winter weather, the difficulty of the road, and his own severe illness. Honoring the zeal of his affection, give him, my most honorable lord, a reward for his long hardships and show him now your usual love for him. Moreover, we send him into your hands, as if into a storm-proof harbor, knowing your great friendliness, your sincere, ardent, firm and unchanging love. If anyone travels from there and finds it convenient, please write to us about your health.
Eupsychius has not yet arrived; therefore, we could not find out anything about what, as you say in your last letter, he had to tell us, since he did not appear to us at all. Knowing this, please tell us now, at least, about what you previously wanted to notify through him, and also, if there is anything else that we need to know, and inform us about your health. Warmly wishing him for you and constantly caring about him, we always want to have information about him.
