CHAPTER III.
ANNAEUS SENECA to PAUL Greeting.
I HAVE completed some volumes and divided them into their proper parts.
2 I am determined to read them to Caesar, and if any favourable opportunity happens, you also shall be present, when they are read;
3 But if that cannot be, I will appoint and give you notice of a day, when we will together read over the performance.
4 I had determined, if I could with safety, first to have your opinion of it, before I published it to Caesar, that you might be convinced of my affection to you. Farewell, dearest Paul.
CHAP. IV.
PAUL to SENECA Greeting.
AS often as I read your letters, I imagine you present with me; nor indeed do I think any other, than that you are always with us.
2 As soon therefore as you begin to come, we shall presently see each other. I wish you all prosperity.
