Letter 4: Aeneas passes along praise of Zonainus and asks for even a small letter.

May every good thing come to excellent Epiphanius, because he filled me with pleasure. When he called you a good orator, he was admiring your character even more than your style. The main point is this: he seemed a true friend. He greeted me many times in your name, joking as he spoke, because he was doing it on your behalf. You had told him to do this, and you know what kind of lover of grace he is. In fact he became almost troublesome, constantly telling me to rejoice in your name. But the fault is yours. If you had sent me even a small letter, I would gladly have received a small greeting, both speaking it and hearing it.
