My pupil Anaximenes,
It was the dawn that a new creation has born itself. Through time and satisfaction of my subsequent writings, an ordering of time has been made. Though it hasn’t been, but what seems like many starry nights that the dial persists, it should be made better. The casting of the shadow on sun beaten ground turns the dial to the south and should be what assists in the telling of time. To when this letter is received, go up to the great gardens to the dial. To no one you should speak, until it is known that this dial has been made better.
Your Teacher And Master of All Things Time,
Anaximander
