| Quotation |
Apud Arabes Hulit mortus, Zoleiman, sanguine frater, in regno secundum expositionem patris regnat annis III. Hic infestus Romaniae fratrem Mazalema nomine non dissimili matre progenitum lectis cum eo centum milia armatorum ad delendam Romaniam mittit. Qui mox fines attingendo peruenit, Pergamum, antiquissimam et florentissimam Asie civitatetem, bello impetitiam, seductione deceptam, igne gladioque finiuit, reliquos exercitui partiri censiuit [...] Zoleiman uero prenominatus princeps, triennio prope peracto, apud prouinciam Antiocenam morans mortuus est. |
| Translation |
Among the Arabs, after Hulit died, his blood brother Zoleiman ruled in the kingdom for three years as per what his father had laid out. This man, hostile to the Roman realm, sent his brother called Mazalema, born from the same mother, to destroy the Roman realm with 100,000 armed men having been selected to go with him. He soon reached and struck the borders of Asia. He then attacked by warfare and destroyed by fire and sword the most ancient and flourishing city of Asia: Pergamum, which was misled by trickery. He decreed that the survivors should be distributed to the army [...] Indeed the aforementioned leader Zoleiman had died at the end of the third year while waiting at the province of Antioch.
