make_v up_o the_o book_n of_o those_o writer_n that_o succeed_v for_o some_o certain_a century_n of_o year_n this_o aimoine_n stephen_n say_v make_v no_o mention_n of_o that_o act_n of_o martel_n it_o be_v true_a neither_o make_v he_o mention_v of_o any_o sacrilege_n at_o all_o no_o not_o so_o much_o as_o stephen_n himself_o and_o all_o writer_n believe_v that_o martel_n be_v guilty_a of_o and_o i_o shall_v wonder_v if_o he_o have_v for_o aimoine_n live_v in_o the_o time_n of_o charles_n the_o great_a and_o what_o he_o write_v concern_v he_o and_o his_o ancestor_n he_o receive_v from_o autmare_n chaplain_n to_o the_o same_o charles_n and_o this_o be_v too_o near_o the_o time_n of_o martel_n for_o a_o true_a historian_n indeed_o the_o life_n of_o pious_a prince_n may_v be_v write_v before_o their_o death_n and_o if_o there_o happen_v a_o unworthy_a passage_n it_o be_v not_o correct_v in_o their_o story_n but_o their_o conversation_n but_o when_o a_o great_a king_n prove_v not_o good_a his_o first_o historian_n must_v be_v worse_o for_o no_o subject_n may_v dare_v to_o write_v what_o such_o a_o sovereign_n can_v commit_v and_o therefore_o if_o a_o ill_a act_n occur_v the_o historian_n must_v dissemble_v or_o defend_v it_o for_o what_o ere_o be_v after_o thought_n of_o great_a man_n action_n yet_o when_o they_o be_v new_o do_v either_o they_o must_v not_o be_v mention_v or_o if_o they_o be_v they_o must_v be_v magnify_v therefore_o autmare_n who_o depend_v upon_o charles_n the_o great_a must_v not_o tell_v such_o tale_n of_o his_o grandfather_n and_o for_o this_o cause_n it_o be_v that_o when_o aimoine_n speak_v of_o martel_n he_o style_v he_o virum_fw-la sagacissimum_fw-la and_o virum_fw-la egregium_fw-la add_v moreover_o that_o his_o achievement_n be_v accomplish_v christo_n in_o omnibus_fw-la praeside_fw-la see_v lib._n 4._o c._n 57_o where_o also_o relate_v his_o victory_n he_o compare_v the_o siege_n of_o avignon_n to_o that_o of_o jericho_n as_o if_o charles_n have_v march_v on_o like_o those_o great_a commander_n of_o israel_n and_o the_o wall_n of_o avignon_n have_v fall_v down_o like_o those_o of_o jericho_n at_o the_o very_a sound_n of_o

ethelbald_n but_o there_o the_o passage_n of_o martel_n can_v be_v find_v and_o the_o truth_n must_v be_v that_o if_o boniface_n have_v any_o such_o thing_n to_o say_v of_o charles_n he_o must_v send_v it_o far_o enough_o for_o it_o may_v not_o be_v tell_v at_o home_n that_o which_o have_v be_v say_v may_v pass_v for_o a_o reason_n why_o so_o great_a a_o crime_n of_o martel_n be_v not_o so_o
