Ὁ δὲ Κωνσταντῖνος καὶ πρότερον ὑπόπτως πρὸς αὐτὸν ἔχων, τότε μᾶλλον εἰς τὴν κατ̓ αὐτοῦ παρεσκευάζετο μάχην: καὶ συναγαγὼν δυνάμεις ἔκ τε ὧν ἔτυχεν ἔχων δορικτήτων βαρβάρων καὶ Γερμανῶν καὶ τῶν ἄλλων Κελτικῶν ἐθνῶν, καὶ τοὺς ἀπὸ τῆς Βρεττανίας συνειλεγμένους, εἰς ἐννέα που μυριάδας πεζῶν ἅπαντας καὶ ὀκτακισχιλίους ἱππέας, ἤλαυνεν ἐκ τῶν Ἄλπεων ἐπὶ τὴν Ἰταλίαν, τὰς μὲν προσαγούσας ἑαυτὰς ἐκεχειρίᾳ πόλεις ἀβλαβεῖς ἀφιείς, τὰς δὲ ἐς ὅπλα ἐούσας καταστρεφόμενος.
