Cicero S. D. Cor∣nificio. 18 12 27
Sext Aufidius
is both as seruiceable as the best
v. comes to the nea∣rest
in dutifulnesse
wherewith
he reuerenceth me▪
and
is inferiour to none
in the noblenesse
of a Roman Gentle∣man.
Yea he is
of so temperate
and well qualified conditions,
that
very great gravity
is joyned
with very great cour∣tesie.
Whose affaires
which
are
in Africa
I doe so recommend
unto you,
that
I cannot
more earnestly,
or more heartily
recommend them:
you shall pleasure me greatly
if
you do your best
that
he
may understand
that my letter
hath prevailed great∣ly
with you.
My good Cornificius
I do earnestly craue
this
of you.
Fare you well.
