""Containing Epistles or Fragments of Epistles"" by Dionysius is a collection of letters written by the ancient Greek author and historian, Dionysius of Halicarnassus. The book includes a variety of letters, some of which are complete epistles, while others are fragments of larger works. The letters cover a range of topics, including politics, philosophy, and literature, and provide insight into the intellectual and cultural climate of ancient Greece. Dionysius was a prolific writer, and his works are highly regarded for their historical accuracy and literary style. This collection of letters is a valuable resource for scholars and students of ancient Greek history and literature, as well as anyone interested in the intellectual and cultural life of the ancient world.Now I speak also before God, and He knoweth that I lie not: it was not by my own choice? neither was it without divine instruction, that I took to flight. But at an earlier period,(1) indeed, when the edict far the persecution under Decius was determined upon, Sabinus at that very hour sent a certain Frumentarius(2) to make search for me. And I remained in the house for four days, expecting the arrival of this Frumentarius.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
