Translation: Theodoric, the African,[1] had a certain orthodox deacon whom he loved and favored very much. This deacon, thinking to please Theodoric, deserted the homoousian faith,[2] and adopted the heresy of Arius.[3] When Theodoric learned this, he at once beheaded the man whom he loved so much, saying, "If you did not keep faith with God, how will you keep a good conscience with man?"
