And while we were giving the letters of the brethren to Paul, one ran and told Xanthippe of the arrival of Polyxena.
2And she made haste and came to us, and seeing Polyxena, was overcome by an unspeakable joy and fell to the ground; but Polyxena embracing her and caressing her for a long time brought her back to life.
3Then Xanthippe said to her, I, my true sister Polyxena, went not forth at all for forty days, praying much for you to the loving God, that your virginity might not be taken away.
4And Paul, the preacher of God, said to me, Her virginity will not be taken away, and she will come quickly.
5And Probus said to me, It was assigned to her by God to be thus afflicted.
6Do you see how by many devices God saves many?
7But now, my beloved sister, having unexpectedly seen your face, now I shall willingly die.
