After listing the disasters of those 28 years, Bury concludes that Honorius "himself did nothing of note against the enemies who infested his realm, but personally he was extraordinarily fortunate in occupying the throne till he died a natural death and witnessing the destruction of the multitude of tyrants who rose up against him."
Efter at have gennemgået ulykkerne i de 28 år, konkluderer Bury, at Honorius "selv intet gjorde af betydning mod de fjender, som hærgede hans rige, men personligt var han ekstraordinært heldig med at besidde tronen til han døde af naturlige årsager, og med at være vidne til ødelæggelsen af en mængde tyranner, der gjorde oprør mod ham."
