Letter 19
To Herodes and Martyrius
In writing a letter to you in common, I consider that I am in no way at fault. Rather would it have been a just reproach to me if I had divided in my letters those who are united in my heart. Accept all my best wishes, my dear friends, and to the man who is delivering the letter to you, who has journeyed on the public highway to convey gold to you, extend the warmest possible welcome, for he has been recommended to me by the entire senate. I should like to be of some use to him. In fact, I do not know that others should care more for us and for the things we may undertake than you do.
