Eorum ego sermonem ratus et vobis auditu gratissimum et mihi compositu congruentem et <deo> dedicatu religiosum, in principio libri facio quendam ex his, qui mihi Athenis condidicerunt, percontari a Persio Graece quae ego pridie in templo Aesculapi disseruerim, paulatimque illis Severum adiungo, cui interim Romanae linguae partes dedi.
Thinking that a conversation between them would be most pleasing for you to hear, suitable for me to compose, and acceptable as an offering to the god, I begin the work with one of my fellow students at Athens asking Perseus in Greek what was the subject of my lecture the day before in the temple of Asclepius. Gradually I bring Severus into the discussion, giving him the part of the Latin speaker for the occasion.
