XXVIII. ENNODIVS GVDILEVO.
Solent quibus felicitas et potentia deo ordinante conceditur
humiles consolari officio litterarum et prospera sua paginarum
promulgatione partiri. ego multo tempore ut his subleuarer
muniis expectaui, sed cessantibus uobis necessarium credidi
non tacere, ut quod amor non exigit iuxta euangelicam lectionem
mereatur inportunitas. domine mi, salutationem plenissimam
dicens quaeso, ut me antiquum cultorem uestrum illo foueatis
quo olim promisistis affectu et prospera uestra paginarum me
faciatis directione cognoscere.
