[Footnote 23: The words are _scrinia sine clave_, which seems to mean

[Footnote 24: Eginhard speaks with lofty contempt of the "vana ac
superstitiosa praesumptio" of the poor woman's companions in trying to
alleviate her sufferings with "herbs and frivolous incantations." Vain
enough, no doubt, but the "mu
