I know that your sincere, ardent, ingenuous and genuine love for us is not extinguished either by many deeds, or by longevity, or by the distance of the journey; I also know how earnestly you want to see us face to face and talk with us personally. But since this is now very difficult - both due to the distance of the journey, and due to the time of year, and due to the fear induced by the Isaurians, then please give us pleasure by often informing us in writing about the health of you and your entire household. If we often receive such letters from your nobility and venerability, then this will bring us, in our desert, great consolation. You are not unaware of how much we desire your health, my dear and most venerable ruler. The paragraphs in the text were arranged by us. – Editorial staff of “ABC of Faith” Written from Cucus in 404.
