Arius breathes out: Egypt was not satisfied with the work of the formal council and protested against it. Saint Anthony wrote to Constantine more than once, begging him to pardon his student Saint Athanasius and return him to his diocese. Constantine replied that it was unreasonable for a large number of enlightened and wise bishops to agree to condemn an innocent person, and that Athanasius was, in his view, rude, arrogant, and troublesome. It was stated in some preliminary references that Arius wanted to return to Alexandria, and that the people could not tolerate that, so the fire of sedition ignited, so the Caesar ordered his coming to Constantinople. The Arians worked hard to convince the venerable Bishop of Constantinople, Alexandros, to accept Arius into the company, and this venerable pontiff adhered to the Nicene faith and refused to accept Arius. Constantine ordered him to do so, so he took refuge in the church and knelt before the altar, crying and praying. When Arius' followers gathered to admit their two leaders into the church, Arius was disturbed and the people retired to relieve himself. His intestines spilled out and he died on top of them in the year 336.

Death of Constantine: (337) Constantine celebrated Easter on April 3, 337, and a fever struck him, so he went to nearby mineral water to bathe. Then he moved to Ankiron, near Nicomedia. He wished to be baptized in the waters of the Jordan, as the Master himself had done. But the time was urgent, so he received the sacrament of baptism at the hands of Ephesius, Bishop of Nicomedia. He took off the purple, threw it aside, and dressed in white. His soul poured out on the day of Pentecost, May 22, 337. His body was embalmed, placed in a golden coffin, and transported to the palace in Constantinople to receive the respect of the notables. Then his body was displayed in the Church of the Apostles, where the clergy prayed over him all night, and he was buried there.

He died, leaving behind three sons: Constantine II, Constantius II, and Constantius. The three ruled the empire together, with Constantine II taking over the West and Constantius taking over the East. As for Constans, he ruled Illyria and part of Africa. Constantine II coveted the rule of Constans the Younger. He fought him, but he fell dead in Aquileia in the year 340. Then the soldiers rebelled against Constans and killed him in the year 350. So Constantius II became the sole king. He was a barren man and had no heir, so he summoned his cousin Gallus from his exile, elevated him to the rank of Caesar, appointed him as governor of the East, and made his headquarters in Antioch. But Gallus had a harsh nature, a harsh heart, and a lack of mercy. He was arrogant, arrogant, and terrorized people. So his cousin summoned him to him in the year 353, tried him, and ordered his beheading. Then Julian asked for Gallus' brother and made him Caesar over Gaul.
