YOur obseruance of me, which I manifestly discern'd, when wee were togeather at Brundusium, giues me
encouragement to write with familiari∣tie, and as it were, with authoritie unto you, when any thing falls out that im∣ports me. Marcus Curio, who negoti••∣ted at Patrae, is so domesticall with me, as a nearer acquaintance can not bee deuised. I haue receiu'd many benefits from him, and he as many from mee. And which is aboue all; we beare one another singular affection. Which be∣ing so: as you haue any hope in my ami∣tie; as you would make the fauours, and courtesies you shewed me at Brun∣dusium, to bee of greater accept••nce, (though they were most acceptable:) & as you seeme to be beloued of al yours: grant, and bestow vpon me this kinde∣nes, that Manius Curius suffer no preiu∣dice; and that by you, he may be freely exempted, from all exaction, detri∣ment, and molest••tion. And I assure you; and all your friends in my behalfe shall warrant, that from ••y friendship, and your humanitie vs'd vnto me, great benefit, and contentment shall acc••ew vnto you. Farewell.
