Letter CX: Marcus Aurelius to Marcus Cornelius Fronto

P ompeianus has won my esteem also by the same deserts which have endeared him to you. So I desire that in accordance with the Lord my father's indulgent ways everything should second his wishes. For whatever falls out as you desire is a joy to me. Farewell, my most delightful of masters. Faustina and our little girls1 greet you.

? 153–154 A.D.

To my master.

1 Lucilla and Arria Fadilla, the latter born about 150 A.D.
