Greek text · Dindorf 4:445

ἐκάλει δὲ ἄρα καὶ Θεότεκνον ἡ δίκη, οὐδαμῶς τὰ κατὰ Χριστιανῶν αὐτῷ πεπραγμένα λήθῃ παραδιδοῦσα. ἐπὶ μὲν γὰρ τῷ κατʼ Ἀντιόχειαν ἱδρυθέντι πρὸς αὐτοῦ ξοάνῳ δόξας εὐημερεῖν, ἤδη καὶ ἡγεμονίας ἠξίωτο παρὰ Μαξιμίνου.

English · Claude translation

Justice also summoned Theotecnus, in no way consigning to oblivion what he had done against the Christians. For after he seemed to prosper through the image set up by him at Antioch, he had even been honored with a governorship by Maximin.
