Letter 8033: What you are to me and what I am to you — these are things that titles cannot change and promotions cannot diminish.
XXXIII. ENNODIVS HORMISDAE DIACONO.
Et quod es miseratione ornatur et quod futurus es pietate
conquiritur, et diaconum his studiis extulisti, cuius rei promittit
cura pontificem. praesentium baiulus honestus moribus
natura sublimis genuini solacii orbatus praesidio Romam pro
honestis artibus, licet peregrinaturus, expetiit. uide si mereantur
a religioso bene nato locupleti iuuari ista quae praetuli.
nunc officio salutationis exhibito rogo, ut si me, si bonam
quam coemisti opinionem diligis, inpensis portitori adulescat
auxiliis.
