ego vero, si pio studio rogata curaveris, sic agam gratias quasi nil tibi quoque laudis aut gloriae accedat, quem patruo tuo remoto solida praesentis officii sollicitudo mansisset pro gradu seminis.
If, however, you attend to my request with pious care, I shall thank you as warmly as if you also did not gain some praise and glory by the act; for if I, your uncle, had passed away, the entire responsibility for this duteous deed would have rested with you in virtue of your degree of relationship.
