Causam meam nesciens agit qui ad vos a me litteras portat; nam, dum votivi mihi fit gerulus opportunus officii, beneficium praestat, quod se arbitratur accipere, sicuti nunc venerabilis Donidius dignus inter spectatissimos quosque numerari.
He who carries a letter from me to you pleads my cause without knowing it; for in becoming the opportune bearer of a homage I longed to pay, he is really conferring a kindness while imagining that he is receiving it. So it is now with the venerable Donidius, a man worthy to be numbered among the most sterling of mankind.
