the meaning of this line is unclear, it may be corrupt. While the poem finishes here in the Codex Fuchsmagen, three more couplets and a final note in prose follow in Reardon's transcription: Usus Francisca, vulgari, et voca Latina / Instituit populum eloquio triplici. / Tertius Otto sibi Petri commisit ovile, / Cognatis manibus unctus in imperium. / Exuit et postquam terrenae vincula carnis, / Aequivoci dextro sustituit lateri. - Decessit XII kal(endas) Mai(as).
