AD JULIANUM.
Dissimulatam ab illo ex verecundia inopiam queritur,
Cons!ructlo Catane monasterio dat so0lidos anunues
Gregorius Juliano.
Gloriz vesire scripta 8uscipiens, legenda lztus
aperui, sed tristis perlecta replicavi. In eis quippe

dicenda erant tempore longo tacuisse. Et certum est
quia minus amatur qui adhuc erubescitur. Atque
omnimodo contristatus sum, 1 YZY quia we a vo-
bis comperi minus quam zslimayerim amari. [n hoc
autem valde * me continetis, si mercedis causas
mihi assidue providendas sludiese requiritis, Nec vo-
bis debet esse verecundiz ei aliquid de eleemosynis
importune dicere, quem constat non res $uas, ed
ad dispensandum res pauperum habere. De causis
itaque > mercedis apud episcopum libere agere de-
buislis, etiamsi meum animum qualis in amore ve-
stro existeret nesciretis. Postquam enim et nos om-
nino gloriam vesiram diligimus, et dispensatoris
locum in rebus, sicut scitis, pauperum tenemus, ve-
s$tra, ſateor, verecundia valde accusabilis ſuit. Quam
ideo tot verbis increpando insequor, ut hanec a corde
vestro ſunditus repellam, et in mercedis causis ma-
gnum $0latium vesirz provisionis habeam. Monasle-
rio ilaque vestro, quod a vobis in Catanensi urbe
constructum «<©5st, per Adrianum notarium et rectorem
patrimonii, emissa precepli pagina, decem annuos
s0lidos dari deputavimus, quos petimus sine injuria
SuSCipi, quia non bac vobis nostra oblatio, sed san-
