Letter 329
Late Antiquity Basil of Caesarea Greek- To Phalerius I took very great delight in the river-fish, though I bore them a grudge for the flight they took when they ran for shelter from the cold. But your letters are more precious to us than fish. So write rather than send. And if it is more agreeable to you to keep silent, still, at the very least, do not cease to pray on our behalf.
