In the year of our Lord .751.1 through the counsel of Zechariah the Pope, Pippin the master of the Kings household, oppressing his lord Hilderych king of France, began to reign, and reigneth .18. years. This writeth Aemilius in the .2. book of kings of France. And in the year .755, Pippin entereth into Italy with an Army, vanquisheth the King of Lombards, and giveth the whole government of Ravenna to S. Peter, 2against the will of the Emperor of Constantinople. Vespergensis in chronicis. You see, how in stead of the Emperor, the Pope beginneth after a sort, to reign at Rome and in Italy, the horns be shaken of, according to the prophecy. Matthew Palmer in his chron. under the year .756: the Roman Empire, sayeth he, revolting a pace in the East,3 and the Emperor persecuting the Christians, (Idolaters he should have termed them) Pope Stephen gave to the kings of France the Imperial titles and dignities, and confirmed Pippin, and the successors of his stock only for their kings, all others utterly excluded, and in the name of the people of Rome, called him Patricium. Hitherto Palmer.
