διὸ καὶ τείχεσιν ἑτέροις, πολλῷ μείζοσιν ὧν Κωνσταντῖνος ἐποίησεν, αὐτὴν περιέβαλον, καὶ τὰς οἰκήσεις οὕτως εἶναι συνεχώρησαν συνεχεῖς ὥστε καὶ οἰκουροῦντας καὶ ἐν ταῖς ἀγοραῖς ὄντας στενοχωρεῖσθαι τοὺς ταύτης οἰκήτορας καὶ μετὰ κινδύνου βαδίζειν διὰ τὴν τῶν ἀνθρώπων καὶ ζῴων πολυπλήθειαν. ἐπεγαιώθη δὲ καὶ τῆς περὶ αὐτὴν θαλάσσης οὐκ ὀλίγον, πάλων κύκλῳ παγέντων καὶ οἰκοδομημάτων αὐτοῖς ἐπιτεθέντων, ἃ καὶ καθ̓ ἑαυτὰ πόλιν ἀρκεῖ μεγάλην πληρῶσαι.
