The Elder to the choice Kyria, and to her children, whom I love in truth, and not I only, but also all those having known the truth,

and now I beseech thee, Kyria, not as writing to thee a new command, but which we had from the beginning, that we may love one another,

See to yourselves that ye may not lose the things that we wrought, but a full reward may receive;

Many things having to write to you, I did not intend through paper and ink, but I hope to come unto you, and speak mouth to mouth, that our joy may be full;
