    Letter CCXLI.3029

    3029 Placed in 376.

    To Eusebius, bishop of Samosata.

    It is not to increase your distress that I am so lavish of painful topics in my letters to your excellency.  My object is to get some comfort for myself in the lamentations which are a kind of natural means of dispersing deep-seated pain whenever they are produced, and further to rouse you, my great-hearted friend, to more earnest prayer on behalf of the Churches.  We know that Moses prayed continually for the people; yet, when his battle with Amalek had begun, he did not let down his hands from morning to evening, and the uplifting of the hands of the saint only ended with the end of the fight.
