Letter XII.¹⁸⁸⁸

To Olympius.¹⁸⁸⁹

Before you did write me a few words: now not even a few. Your brevity will soon become silence. Return to your old ways, and do not let me have to scold you for your laconic behaviour. But I shall be glad even of a little letter in token of your great love. Only write to me.
