Ignatius of Antioch

Ignatius of Antioch. The Apostolic Fathers, Volume 1. Lake, Kirsopp, translator. Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press; London: William Heinemann Ltd., 1912.

I salute the house of Tavia, and pray that she be confirmed in faith and love, both of the flesh and spirit. I salute Alce, a name most dear to me, and the incomparable Daphnus, and Eutecnus,[*](It is not impossible that εὔτεκνον is an adjective meaning with good children, and referring to Daphnus. Zalm takes this view.) and all others by their several names. Farewell in the grace of God.
