[48] Melchior Hittorp, _De divinis cath. eccles. officiis_ (Paris 1610), p. 153. Cp. the Ordo I of A. Diemand, _Das Ceremoniell der Kaiserkrönungen von Otto I bis Friedrich II_, pp. 124, 125. Almost identical with this is the _Ordo ad benedicendum imperatorem quando coronam accipit_, of _O. R._ XII., _P. L._ LXXVII. coll. 1101, 1102. [49] Martène’s Ordo VI, _op. cit._ II. p. 211. [50] Martène’s Ordo VII, ibid. p. 212; Pertz, _M. G. Legg._, II. 97. Diemand (_op. cit._ p. 30) thinks that the title of this order ‘Incipit Ordo qualiter rex _Teutonicus_’ etc. shews that this order is not official. But the ‘Exercitus Teutonicus’ is prayed for in the Laudes of the Gemunden Codex. See above. [51] G. Waitz, _Die Formeln der Deutschen Königs- und der Römischen Kaiser-Krönung_ (Göttingen, 1872), pp. 67, 68. [52] Diemand (_op. cit._) divides the whole period from Otto I (962)—Frederick II (1220) into three recensions only, in the first of which he classes all those orders in which the anointing takes place before the ‘Confessio’ of St Peter. [53] Hopf, _Chroniques_, p. 73 f. [54] Pertz, _M. G. Legg._ II. 187 ff. [55] So Pertz, _l.c._, but Diemand (_op. cit._ p. 35) takes it to be the Order used in the coronation of Henry III by Pope Clement II. This is without doubt an official Order. [56] In nomine domini nostri Jesu Christi. Ego N. rex, et futurus imperator Romanorom, promitto, spondeo, polliceor, atque per haec evangelia iuro coram Deo et beato Petro apostolo, tibi N. beati Petri apostoli vicario fidelitatem, tuisque successoribus canonice intrantibus; meque amodo protectorem ac defensorem fore huius sanctae Romanae ecclesiae, et vestrae personae, vestrorumque successorum in omnibus utilitatibus, in quantum divino fultus fuero adiutorio, secundum scire meum ac posse, sine fraude et malo ingenio. Sic me Deus adiuvet et haec sancta Dei evangelia. [57] There is no mention of the place where the Emperor is anointed, but as he is invested before the altar of St Maurice it seems probable that here too he was anointed by the Bishop of Ostia as in the last recension. Diemand seems not to have noticed where the investitures took place, and assumes that the unction was made before the Confessio of St Peter. [58] Pertz, _M. G. Legg._ pp. 528 ff. [59] _P. L._ LXXVIII. coll. 1238 ff. Almost identical is Muratori’s Order. See _Lit. Rom. Vetus_, Vol. II. p. 455. [60] _Pontificale Romanum_ (1520). De coronatione Romani Imperatoris. [61] _Rex Teutonicorum_ occurs often in the tenth and eleventh centuries. _Rex Germanicorum_ occurs once or twice in early times. Maximilian I first added the title _Rex Germaniae_. Bryce says that there is reason to think that in later times _Erwählter_ began to acquire the meaning of ‘elective’ in the place of ‘elect.’ See _Roman Empire_, p. 531, note _b_. (Ed. 1910.)
