Ipsa die sacratissima natalis Domini, cum rex ad missam ante confessionem beati Petri apostoli ab oratione surgeret, Leo papa coronam capiti eius imposuit, et a cuncto Romanorum populo adclamatum est: "Carolo augusto, a Deo coronato magno et pacifico imperatori Romanorum, vita et victoria!" Et post laudes ab apostolico more antiquorum principum adoratus est atque ablato patricii nomine imperator et augustus est appellatus. |
| Translation |
On that very same most sacred day of the Lord's birth, when the king, at mass, rose from prayer before the confessio of the blessed apostle Peter, pope Leo placed a crown upon his head, and from the entire people of the Romans came the acclamation: 'To Charles, Augustus, crowned by God, great and pacific emperor of the Romans, life and victory!' And after the acclamations he was adored by the apostolicus in the way the emperors of old were and, the name of patrician having been laid aside, was called emperor and Augustus. (Trans. King, p. 93) |
