πάντες μὲν οὖν ὡς εἰπεῖν οἱ μετὰ τὴν νίκην ὑπολειφθέντες ἐπὶ τὸν βασιλέα δραμόντες τοῦτόν τε Αὔγουστον ἀνεβόησαν καὶ ἐπὶ τοῖς ἡμαρτημένοις ἠξίουν ἔχειν συγγνώμην, καὶ ὁ βασιλεὺς ῥᾷον ἐπένευεν: Ἀρβογάστης δὲ τυχεῖν ὑπὸ Θεοδοσίου φιλανθρωπίας οὐκ ἀξιώσας ἐπὶ τὰ τραχύτατα συνέφυγε τῶν ὀρῶν, αἰσθόμενος δὲ ὡς πάντα περινοστοῦσι τόπον οἱ τοῦτον ἐπιζητοῦντες ἑαυτὸν ὑπέσχε τῷ ξίφει, τὸν ἑκούσιον θάνατον τῆς ὑπὸ τῶν ἐχθρῶν συλλήψεως προτιμήσας.
