		In the year 751 Pope Zechary deposed Childeric, a slothful and useless King of France, and the last of the race of Merovaeus; and absolving his subjects from their oath of allegiance, gave the kingdom to Pipin the majorof the Palace; and thereby made a new and potent friend.
		The Popes began also about this time to canonize saints, and to grant indulgences and pardons: and some represent that Leo III was the first author of all the sethings.
		By Peter’s giving the Pallium to the Pope with his right hand, and the banner of the city to the King with his left, and by naming the Pope before the King in the inscription, may be understood that the Pope was then reckoned superior in dignity to the Kings of the earth.
