This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: 801 Alcuin retired from court to the abbey of St. Martin, in Tours, keeping up a correspondence with Charlemagne until his death, in 804. Eginhard, the biographer of Charlemagne, was a pupil of Alcuin. His talents and acquirements gained him the favor of the Emperor, who appointed him his private secretary, and superintendent of public buildings. Eginhard accompanied the Emperor in all his marches and journeys, never separating from him except on one occasion, when he was dispatched by Charlemagne on a mission to Pope Leo. On the death of the Emperor he was appointed preceptor to Lothaire, son of Louis the Debonnaire. His "Vita Caroli Magni," completed about the year 820, is the most important historical work of a biographical character that has come down to us from the Middle Ages. He also wrote several other works. There is a legend which says that Eginhard's wife, Emma, was a daughter of Charlemagne. A mutual affection had arisen between them, and on one occasion, when the lovers were enjoying a nightly interview, a sudden fall of snow covered the spacious court, thus rendering retreat impossible without leading to a discovery. As the traces of female footsteps could not excite suspicion, Emma carried her lover across the court on her shoulders. This scene was observed from a window by Charlemagne, who united the affectionate pair in marriage. Aix-la-Chapelle and Ingelheim, on the Rhine, were the favorite residences of Charlemagne. The last years of his life were spent at Aix- la-Chapelle: " Urbs Aquensis, urbs regalis, Sedes regni principals, Prima regum curia." etc. In private life Charlemagne was exceedingly amiable, a good father, and a generous friend. He was tall, good-looking; his gait was firm, and his bearing manly and dignified. He had several wives. ...<
