You know that everyone in the province of Asia has deserted me, including Phygelus and Hermogenes.

for Demas has deserted me for love of the present world, and has gone to Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to Galatia, and Titus to Dalmatia.

At my first appearance in court no one came to help me; everybody deserted me. May no one lay it up against them!
