To Urbanus, a Festal Greeting

Our generous Lord has granted us once again to enjoy the feast and to send the festal greeting to your excellency. We pray that you may be well and prosper, and that you may share in the divine gift beyond words, which supplies to those who come to it the seeds of the blessings we hope for, and gives the symbols of the life and the kingdom that have no end. These things we beg the loving Lord to give you, for it is natural for friends to ask that their friends may be blessed.
