23] Valeriani, infausti principis, fortunam taedet referre. Is cum Gallieno suscepit imperium: Cum Valerianum exercitus, Gallienum senatus imperatorem fecit, in Mesopotamia adversus Persas congressus, a Sapore, Persarum Rege, superatus est: et captus in dedecore servitutis consenuit. Sub Gallieno Mesopotamia invasa, etiam Syriam sibi Persae coeperunt vindicare: nisi, quod turpe dictu est, Odenathus, decurio Palmyrenus, collecta Syrorum agrestium manu, acriter restitisset: et fusis aliquoties Persis, non modo nostrum limitem defendisset; sed etiam ad Ctesiphontem Romani ultor imperii, quod mirum est dictu, penetrasset.
