CONSTANTINE. Impossible!
GALLICANUS. It is true.
CONSTANTINE. What anguish for a man of your courage!
GALLICANUS. The sharpest.
CONSTANTINE. And how did you escape?
GALLICANUS. My faithful companions, John and Paul, advised me to make a vow to the Creator.
CONSTANTINE. Good advice.
GALLICANUS. I found it so. Hardly had I opened my lips to make the vow than I received help from heaven.
CONSTANTINE. How?
GALLICANUS. A young man of immense stature appeared before me carrying a cross on his shoulder. He bade me follow him sword in hand.
