Concerning Maximus the Cynic and the disorder which took place in Constantinople on his account: that Maximus neither became nor is a bishop, nor are those ordained by him in any grade of the clergy whatsoever; all things, both those done concerning him and those done by him, having been annulled.
Περὶ Μαξίμου τοῦ Κυνικοῦ, καὶ τῆς κατ᾿ αὐτὸν ἀταξίας τῆς ἐν Κωνσταντινουπόλει γενομένης· ὥστε μήτε Μάξιμον ἐπίσκοπον ἢ γενέσθαι, ἢ εἶναι, μήτε τοὺς παρ᾿ αὐτοῦ χειροτονηθέντας, ἐν οἱῳδήποτε βαθμῷ κλήρου· πάντων καὶ τῶν περὶ αὐτόν, καὶ τῶν παρ᾿ αὐτοῦ γενομένων ἀκυρωθέντων.
