APIS Translation (English)

(Translation from P.L.Bat. I 20 with BL IV 103) - - - [in order to] reassure me, my lord, by writing that you have duly arranged the affair. For it belongs to the possible things, if only you will. (5) Do you now, my lord patron, send me instructions concerning what you want, for you provide me with a double holiday whenever I have the opportunity to kiss most warmly a letter of yours as if it were you in the flesh. (10) I wish you good health, my lord patron.
