    Ep. CLXXXVI.

    (A letter of introduction for a relative.)

    What would you have done if I had come in person and taken up your time?  I am quite certain you would have undertaken with all zeal to deliver me from the slander, if I may take as a token what has happened before.  Do me this favour, then, through my most discreet kinswoman who approaches you through me, reverencing first the age of your petitioner, and next her disposition and piety, which is more than is ordinarily found in a woman; and besides this, her ignorance in business-matters, and the troubles now brought upon her by her own relations; and above all, my entreaty.  The greatest favour you can do me is speed in the benefit for which I am asking.  For even the unjust judge in the Gospel4751

    4751 S. Luke xviii. 1, etc.

    shewed kindness to the widow, though only after long beseeching and importunity.  But from you I ask for speed, that she may not be overwhelmed by being long burdened with anxieties and miseries in a foreign land; though I know quite well that Your Piety will make that alien land to be a fatherland to her.
