Cumque materies belli acrioris et inimicitiae longioris inter reges populosque feroces videretur exorta, Theodorus Deo dilectus antistes divino functus auxilio, salutifera exhortatione coeptum tanti periculi funditus exstinguit incendium: adeo ut pacatis alterutrum regibus ac populis, nullius anima hominis pro interfecto regis fratre, sed debita solummodo multa pecuniae regi ultori daretur.
And whereas there seemed to be arisen an occasion of sharper war and longer enmity between the high-minded kings and peoples, Theodore the bishop beloved of God, making use of divine help did by his wholesome exhortation utterly quench the fire of so great a peril begun: in such sort that the kings and people being pacified on both sides, the life of no man perished for the death of the kings brother, but only a due amercement of money was given to the king that was the avenger.
