II. Περὶ δὲ τοῦ συνδούλου ἡμῶν Βούρρου, τοῦ κατὰ θεὸν διακόνου ὑμῶν καὶ ἐν πᾶσιν εὐλογημένου, εὔχομαι παραμεῖναι αὐτὸν ἄμωμον εἰς τιμὴν τῆς ἐκκλησίας καὶ τοῦ ἐπισκόπου ὑμῶν τοῦ μακαριωτάτου. 2. Κρόκος δέ, ὁ θεοῦ ἄξιος καὶ ὑμῶν, ὃν ὡς ἐξεμπλάριον τῆς ἀφ’ ὑμῶν ἀγάπης ἀπελάβομεν, κατὰ πάντα με ἀνέπαυσεν καὶ τὴν ἅλυσίν μου οὐκ ἐπῃσχύνθη, ὡς καὶ αὐτὸν ὁ πατὴρ Ἰησοῦ Χριστοῦ ἀναψύξαι ἅμα Ὀνησίμῳ καὶ Βούρρῳ καὶ Εὔπλοϊ καὶ Φρόντωνι, δι’ ὧν πάντας ὑμᾶς κατὰ ἀγάπην εἶδον. 3. ὀναίμην ὑμῶν διὰ παντός, ἐάνπερ ἄξιος ὦ. πρέπον οὖν ὑμᾶς ἐστιν κατὰ πάντα τρόπον δοξάζειν Ἰησοῦν Χριστὸν τὸν δοξάσαντα ὑμᾶς, ἵνα ἐν μιᾷ ὑποταγῇ ἦτε κατηρτισμένοι τῷ αὐτῷ νοῒ καὶ τῇ αὐτῇ γνώμῃ καὶ τὸ αὐτὸ λέγητε πάντες περὶ τοῦ αὐτοῦ, ἵνα ὑποτασσόμενοι τῷ ἐπισκόπῳ καὶ τῷ πρεσβυτερίῳ κατὰ πάντα ἦτε ἡγιασμένοι.
