With died of the Adalbert abbot, into 821, it was indicated to succeed to him the head of the monastery of Tool bags, then, into 828, called with the throne archiépiscopal of Sens and crowned the following year with the council of Paris. It was there especially in charge of the reform of the royal abbey of Saint-Denis. Besides during all the duration of its pastoral load, it seems to have had especially in heart the religious discipline and the reform of its clergy. It was interested as highly in the ecclesiastical studies and had Loup of Tool bags as raises, as it sent to improve in Germany, near famous the Raban Maur. In 834, it attended the council of Thionville, where Louis Débonnaire was raised of the forfeiture which had struck it. He died into 840 or 841 and its body was, according to its wish, carried and buried with Ferrières.
