This Byzantine work is a poignant elegy for the great emperor, John III, who had passed away, highlighting his exceptional qualities, military victories, and the deep sorrow experienced by his subjects. The orator grapples with the enormity of the king's loss and the impact of his leadership on the Roman Empire. Despite the overwhelming grief, the speech shifts towards a hopeful perspective, emphasizing the continuity of leadership through the king's son, who embodies similar virtues and promises a prosperous future for the Roman people. The orator calls for both mourning and rejoicing in the face of this transition.
