Good Counsel


Quote from Letter 5,26 to Vincomalus, defender. February 595


You should faithfully work hard to complete all that we have charged you to do, as being about to render an account on your actions before the judgement of our God. We have dictated this letter for Paterius, notary of our Church, to write down.
