Τοιαῦτα τοῖς ἁπανταχοῦ κατὰ πόλιν Ἀλεξάνδρου γράφοντος χεῖρον ἐγίνετο τὸ κακόν. ταῦτα γνοὺς ὁ βασιλεὺς Κωνσταντῖνος, καὶ τὴν ψυχὴν ὑπεραλγήσας συμφοράν τε οἰκείαν τὸ πρᾶγμα ἡγούμενος, παραχρῆμα τὸ ἀναφθὲν κακὸν κατασβέσαι σπουδάζων, γράμματα πρὸς Ἀλέξανδρον καὶ Ἄρειον διαπέμπεται δι᾿ ἀνδρὸς ἀξιοπίστου, ἐπισκόπου πόλεως μιᾶς τῶν Σπανίων Κουρδούβης, ἐπεὶ αὐτὸν ἠγάπα καὶ διὰ τιμῆς ἦγεν ὁ βασιλεύς. Ἐπιστολὴ Κωνσταντίνου βασιλέως πρὸς Ἀλέξανδρον καὶ Ἄρειον διαπεμφθεῖσα διὰ Ὁσίου ἐπισκόπου Κουρδούβης.
