Long Life, Short Art

—before them their equal. Wherefore I trust more certainly that you will kindly accept this token of my respect for You and of my devotion to your Parent, and that you will allow me, while you live a LONG LIFE (as I augur) with your most excellent Consort, overflowing with the abundance of all things, and not in the least needing our SHORT ART, to be in the number of Your clients.
