THE following extract from the ``Life of Charlemagne,'' by Eginhard, a contemporary, may be interesting to C. W. D. ``Cum Carolus imperator ultimam in Saxoniam expeditionem contra Godefridum, regem Danorum, ageret, quadam die, cum, ante exortum solis, castris egressus, iter agere cœpisset, vidit repente delapsam cœlitus cum ingenti lumine facem a dextra in sinistram per serenum aera transcurrere; cunctisque hoc signum, quid portenderet, admirantibus, subito equus quem sedebat, capite deorsum merso, decidit, eumque tam graviter ad terram clisit, ut fibula sagi rupta balteoque gladii dissipato, a festinantibus qui aderant ministris exarmatus non sine adminiculo levaretur. Jaculum etiam quod tunc forte manu tenebat, itaelapsum est ut viginti vel eo amplius pedum spatio longe jaceret.''
