Translation text:In the twenty-fourth year of his reign, his love of God caused him to have built in the faubourg of Chalon (though in fact on land belonging to the territory of the Seine) the sumptuous church of Saint Marcel, where the saint's precious body now rests. There, too, he brought together monks and founded a monastery and endowed its church with many possessions.
