John to Gisla and Rodtruda, he writes, "I should have sent you the whole Commentarv on St. John, had I not been fully occupied in complying with the king's command to amend the versions of the Old and New Testaments. "- And again, in one of his carmina he writes : "Receive, O king, this little gift, token of the great love thy Alcuin bears thee. The great ones of earth bring thee precious stones, but I in my poverty bring thee these two little books, lest on that great day I should come empty-h...anded into thy presence, O most pious and revered king.^ These I have carefully corrected and bound together in one great volume and have sent them to you through the medium of our very dear son, our faithful servant. "* Thus there is some ground for ac- cepting the tradition that the Carolingian revision of the Bible was the work of Alcuin.
