baiulus apicum sedulo precatur, ut ad vos a me litteras ferat, cuius a nobis itinere comperto id ipsum erat utique, si tacuisset, orandus; namque hoc officium vester potius amor quam geruli respectus elicuit.
The bearer of this letter earnestly begs me to let him take a note from me to you, although I should inevitably have besought him to do that very thing, even if he had said nothing about it, as soon as I discovered what way he was going; for it is my love for you rather than deference to the courier that has elicited this message.
