54:1
Quique videns utile, virum annis maturum in tantis regni curis habere participem, et quia, ut sermo divinus monet: Melius duo, quam unus (Eccles. 4, 9.), consortem adsciscit Theodosium, eique Orientis procuratione permissa, partes sibi ac fratri Occiduas reservavit. Verum is postquam multa religiose ac fortiter gessit, a Maximo tyranno apud Britannias exorto, per Andragathium ducem, Lugduni, suorum magis proditione, quam vi hostium, peremptus est.
他見在如此重大的國事中有一位年事成熟之人作同伴乃是有益的,又因神聖言語所勸誡的:「兩個人總比一個人好」(傳四9),便接納提阿多修為同僚,把東方的治理交託他,自己與兄弟則保留西方各地。提阿多修以虔敬與勇敢成就了許多事之後,格拉提安卻在里昂被那興起於不列顛的僭主馬克西穆斯藉其將領安德拉伽提烏所殺——與其說是因仇敵的武力,不如說是因自己人的背叛。
And he, seeing that it was useful to have as a partner in such great cares of the kingdom a man mature in years, and because, as the divine word admonishes: 「Two are better than one」 (Eccl. 4:9), associated Theodosius with himself, and, the administration of the East having been entrusted to him, reserved the Western parts for himself and his brother. But after Theodosius had accomplished many things religiously and bravely, Gratian was slain at Lyons by Maximus the tyrant, who had arisen in Britain, through his general Andragathius—more by the treachery of his own men than by the force of the enemy.
