_Ad D. Lucam medicum._ Coloss. iv. 14.
Nulla mihi, Luca, de te medicamina posco,
Ipse licet medicus sis, licet aeger ego:
Quippe ego in exemplum fidei dum te mihi pono,
Tu, medice, ipse mihi es tu medicina mea.
{Ouden ego, Louka, para sou moi pharmakon aito,
Kan sy d' iatros ees, kan men ego noseros.
All' en hoso paradeigma peleis moi pistios, autos,
Autos iatros emoi g' essi akestorie.}
_Luke the beloved physician._
No medicine of thee, O Luke, I seek,
Though thou art a physician, and I sick:
Th' example of thy faith before my eyen,
To me, physician, is the medicine. B.
