Letter 187
To Anasagoras the Grammarian.
"A crown of graces you shall receive upon your head," Solomon has said [Proverbs 4:9]. For there is not one single grace by which the crown here understood is woven, but graces that are very many indeed; and the Apostle says: "May grace be multiplied unto you" [1 Peter 1:2].

Στέφανον χαρίτων δέξῃ τῇ κορυφῇ σου, ὁ Σολομῶν εἴρηκεν. Οὐ γὰρ μία ὑπάρχει χάρις, ᾗ πλέκεται ὁ νοούμενος στέφανος, πολλαὶ δὲ πάνυ χάριτες· καί φησιν ὁ Ἀπόστολος· Χάρις ὑμῖν πληθυνθείη.
