Letter 412: I have written to you before and I greet you again now.
To Eusebius. (355)
I wrote to you before as well, and now too I greet you. And indeed I shall not cease writing until I summon your sacred person [literally: head] to make a return. And surely this eagerness is not exerted for small prizes.
