igitur quia nos ut affinitas, ita studia iunxerunt, precor, quoquo loci es, amicitiae iura inconcussa custodias longumque tibi etsi sede absumus, adsimus affectu: cuius intemeratae partes, quantum spectat ad vos, a nobis in aevum, si quod est vitae reliquum, perennabuntur.
Well, then, since our studies no less than our kinship have united us, I beseech you, wherever you may be, to keep the claims of friendship unshaken, and although our dwelling-places are far removed, let our affection draw us close to one another. As far as you are concerned, the obligations of this friendship shall ever be preserved by me inviolate through all the span of life that remains to me.
