Post quae, supremis cum gemitu conclamatis, excitisque lamentis et luctu, deliberabant locum obtinentes in aula regia primum, quid agerent quidve moliri deberent: paucisque occulte super eligendo imperatore temptatis, incitante (ut ferebatur) Eusebio, quem noxarum conscientia stimulabat, cum novandis rebus imminens obsisteret Iulianus, mittuntur ad eum Theolaifus et Aligildus tunc comites, mortem indicantes propinqui, et oraturi, ut mora omni depulsa, ad obtinendum obtemperare sibi paratum, tenderet Orientem.
