XVIII. ENNODIVS DOMINICAE.
Fecit magnitudo uestra quod et sanctis moribus suis debet
et sanguini, ut propinquitatis memoriam silentii non patiatur
torpore languescere. in quacumque terrarum parte uiuit adfinitas,
nec separantur regionibus parentelae catena sociati
credite mihi, dilectio sancta non deperit nec ullum patitur
per diuisiones itinerum natura dispendium. nam generum
uestrum tantum mihi noueritis caritatis inpendere, quantum
ad uicissitudinem nulla satisfactio existat idonea. quod superest,
domina mi, accipientes debitae salutationis affectum, deum
precor, ut in bono mutuae felicitatis uidendi uos occasionem
conferre dignetur, quatenus sub confabulatione uotiua pia
desideria subleuentur.
