his visit to Rome in 774 inaugurates his 40 years of triumphs, [463];

his loyalty in repeating his father's acts, [465];

visits to Rome in the pontificate of Adrian I., [497];

receives Pope Leo III. at Paderborn, [501];

comes from Aix-la-Chapelle to Rome, [502];

the Pope acquitted on his personal word in St. Peter's before him, [503];

crowned by Leo III. emperor of the Romans on Christmas Day, 800, [503];

made emperor by the Pope alone, to be protector of the Church, [505];

this making by the Pope acknowledged by all his subjects, [506];

it recognises the proper nature of civil government, [508];
