After which time Iustinus the fourth banished (as aforesaid in his history) by the help of Bulgarians, was recalled from exile & came to Constantinople with a great army, and raigned with his sonne sixe yeares more: commaunding Leontius and Tiberius to be slaine in his owne sight, pulling out the eyes of the patriarch Callinicus, and banishing him to Rome. After this he sent for Constantinus Bishop of Rome, and receiued him with great reuerence, Kissing his feete, and confessing his former errours crauing pardon for them, and approued the Romaine Religion. Lastly waging Warre with Phillippicus (that was before banished to Pontus) [ C] by the perswasion of the Pope, he was there with his sonne Tiberius ouercome and slaine.
