So then at last your Cicero has the happiness of returning to you, bearing you my thanks. And yet he also stays, very
willingly, with me; a dear friend, to whom I give the credit of being almost the only man of letters for whose sake I would go
to the length of spending my time, when the difficulties of life are pressing on me so sharply and inexorably and the cares
pertaining to my literary labours make the longest life seem far too short, in transcribing compositions not my own.
