Letter 63: Hormisdas to Anastasia.
Hormisdas to Anastasia. Now that our God has restored the members of his Church to their former peace and solidity, we testify that you have long desired what you now rejoice has come to pass. We ceaselessly implore divine mercy that, just as he has graciously received these first-fruits of the reign, so he may always aid the faith of the good prince with every kind of prosperity — and guard both him and all of us in the sacred love of religion. For those whose faith has driven out the darkness of wicked error may rightly expect the rewards of light.
