Found: Hermas:457:2 @ But he answered and said unto me; "Thou art exceedingly importunate in enquiries.

Found: IgnatiusSmyrneans:11:3 @ It seemed to me therefore a fitting thing that ye should send one of your own people with a letter, that he might join with them in giving glory for the calm which by God's will had overtaken them, and because they were already reaching a haven through your prayers.
