Psellos (with words) & a krites (with actions) were old collaborators, planning the revival of a dying monastery

Summary:
[lacuna] Psellos' ideas changed normally, but the krites' views were immovable. Collaboration since their youth involved more words from Psellos and more actions from the krites, filling the cup of friendship. Psellos asked for what he wanted, but the krites gave more, not censuring meanness but offending by generosity. When and whom could Psellos ask about the dying monastery? If the krites knew the facts he should reveal them and revive it
