Epiroticam emptionem gaudeo tibi placere. quae tibi mandavi et quae tu intelleges convenire nostro Tusculano velim, ut scribis, cures, quod sine molestia tua facere poteris. nam nos ex omnibus molestiis et laboribus uno illo in loco conquiescemus.

I am glad that your purchase in Epirus pleases you. I should like you, as you write, to attend to what I entrusted to you and whatever you understand to suit my Tusculan estate, insofar as you can do so without inconvenience. For amid all my troubles and labors I shall find rest in that one place.

Je me réjouis que ton achat en Épire te plaise. Pour les objets dont je t’ai chargé, ainsi que pour ceux que tu jugeras convenir à notre propriété de Tusculum, je voudrais que tu t’en occupes, comme tu l’écris, dans la mesure où tu pourras le faire sans te donner de peine. Car c’est dans ce seul lieu que nous trouverons le repos après tous nos ennuis et nos travaux.
