Letter 716
To the Same Person.
Though you have made your petition many times and have failed to obtain it, do not lose heart, but by all means keep hoping that you will be helped. For even if for some appointed time He does not grant your request, the only wise God is altogether arranging it for greater goods.

Latin / Greek Original
Πλεονάκις παρεκάλεσας, καὶ ἀποτυχών, μὴ ἀθυμήσῃς, ἀλλ’ ἔλπιζε πάντως βοη[θη]θῆναι. Κἂν γὰρ πρὸς καιρόν τινα μὴ παράσχῃ τὴν αἴτησιν, πάντως ἐπὶ μείζοσιν ἀγαθοῖς ταύτην οἰκονομεῖ ὁ μόνος σοφὸς Θεός.
