Eutropius writes that the emperor Constantine was born in Britain, and became king after his father. During his time, the Arian heresy was stirred up, and he spread the deadly poison of his infidelity not only to all the churches of the earth, but it also to this island. The heresy was condemned at the Council of Nicaea and was suppressed in Constantine's day.
