What, then, is it? at all events, they will hear that thou hast come. This, then, do, which unto thee, we say: - We have four men who have a vow upon themselves. Taking these unto thee, be purified with them, and spend something upon them, that they may shave their head; and all will get to know, that the things which they have heard rumoured concerning thee, are, nothing, - on the contrary, thou thyself, dost keep the ranks, guarding the law.
