[Footnote *: Had  he  the  choice?  M. Guizot has eloquently
          described the position  of  Charlemagne  towards the Saxons.
          Il y fit  face  par le conquete; la guerre defensive prit la
          forme offensive: il  transporta  la  lutte sur le territoire
          des peuples qui  voulaient  envahir  le sien: il travailla a
          asservir les races  etrangeres,  et  extirper  les croyances
          ennemies.  De la son mode de gouvernement et la fondation de
          son empire: la  guerre  offensive  et  la conquete voulaient
          cette vaste et  redoutable  unite.   Compare observations in
          the Quarterly Review,  vol.  xlviii.,  and  James's  Life of
          Charlemagne. - M.]
