Zaka zingapo pambuyo pa kutsegulidwa kwa nkhondo, Ziska wolimba mtima adamwalira; koma malo ake anadzadzidwa ndi Procopius, yemwe anali mkulu mofanana wolimba mtima ndi waluso, ndipo m'mbali zina mtsogoleri wokhoza kwambiri
A few years after the opening of the war, the brave Ziska died; but his place was filled by Procopius, who was an equally brave and skillful general, and in some respects a more able leader.
