822, Year and Gematria


Between C. S. Lewis, Sinclair Lewis, Lewis Carroll, Lewis Trondheim, who would be most likely to be called Lewis the Pious?

You might agree it is C. S. Lewis.

Now 822 is a year when an Emperor called Lewis the Pious did a pious thing, namely confess to and repent of an excessive punishment, amounting to a crime.*

Perhaps his confession contributed to making the idea of gouging out eyes less popular in France than it remained for some time in Constantinople.

C 67  6 * 32 = 192
