10  2,5 |         few weeks later we find Polycarp sending a collection of
11  2,5 |         letters of Ignatius and Polycarp shows in what close touch

26  2,7 |         original order in which Polycarp circulated the collection,
27  2,7 | twenty-five years earlier. That Polycarp has that collection in the
28  2,7 |      hearing.~Both Ignatius and Polycarp were well aware of the great
29  2,7 |       necessary to suppose that Polycarp painfully sent around among
