CHAP. XI. That the Emperour Justinus was seized with a * 1.1Frensie: but Tiberius undertook the care of the Republick.
WHich [proceedings] when Justinus was made acquainted with, having in his mind not so much as one thought that was sound and prudent, nor bearing his a 1.2 misfortune so as it becomes a man to doe; from such an heighth of pride and haughtiness he falls into a Frantick distemper and madness, and in future became in∣sensible of what was transacted. From thence forward therefore Tiberius had the management of the Republick, a person by descent a Thra∣cian, but one who bore the chiefest place of trust, [and was the greatest favourite] with Justinus.b 1.3 This person had heretofore been sent [by Justinus] against the * 1.4Abari, [ac∣companied with] a vast Army of Souldiers which had been raised. But, the Souldiers not en∣during so much as the sight of the Barbarians, Tiberius wanted but little of being taken, had not the Divine providence in a wonderfull manner protected him, and reserved him for the Ro∣man Empire; which had been reduced to such danger by Justinus's absurd and rash attempts, that ['twas feared least] together with the whole State it should be utterly ruined, and might yield to the * 1.5 prevalent power and dominion of the Barbarians.
〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉. It must be made 〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉〈 in non-Latin alphabet 〉; as I found it written in the Telle∣rian M. S. Vales.
The Em∣perour Ju∣stinus sent Tiberius the Comes of his Guards, against the Avares, with an Army sufficiently strong, on the ninth year of his Empire, as Theophanes relates in his Chro∣nicon. But Johannes Biclariensis says that was done on the fourth year of Justinus's Empire: where he relates, that from this Battel Tiberius returned a Conquerour to Constantinople. Which yet is declared to be false by Evagrius and Theophanes. Vales.
