Would you have me believe that you do not take the least concern in the affairs of Ulpian and Palladius , that you neither regard them as friends nor esteem them as orators nor recollect that they may assist you with their friendly offices? Such reports, which it does not become me to repeat, are circulated by many. On the contrary, I contend that none of them, as far as you are concerned, are true. Write, therefore, and confute them. You will thus confer a favour on yourself as well as on me. Two orators frequently mentioned by Libanius.
