Ἐπεὶ δὲ ἐτελεύτησεν Ἀλέξανδρος, διάδοχον αὐτὸν καταλιπὼν, ἔτι μᾶλλον ἐπέδωκεν ἡ περὶ αὐτοῦ δόξα, βεβαιουμένη ταῖς οἰκείαις ἀρεταῖς, καὶ τῇ μαρτυρίᾳ τοῦ μεγάλου Ἀντωνίου μοναχοῦ. Μετακαλουμένου γὰρ αὐτοῦ ὑπήκουε, καὶ ταῖς πόλεσιν ἐφοίτα: καὶ εἰς τὰς ἐκκλησίας συνῄει: καὶ οἷς ἐδόξαζε περὶ Θεοῦ συνεψηφίζετο. Καὶ φίλον ἐν πᾶσιν εἶχεν αὐτὸν, καὶ τοὺς ἐναντιουμένους ἢ ἀπεχθανομένους αὐτῷ ἀπεστρέφετο.
