Letter 47

Marcus AureliusMarcus Cornelius Fronto|c. 156 AD|Marcus Cornelius Fronto|Human translated

? 154–156 A.D. To my master, greeting. By this time, at all events, my master, I hope you can send better news, for your letter says that you were in pain up to the time when you wrote. I have dictated this, walking about. For the state of my wretched body requires that exercise just now. But I shall only feel the full benefit of the vintage season when we find your health beginning to mend. Farewell, my most delightful of masters.
