 Alfonso almost invariably calls himself simply "King Alfonso" ("Adefonsus rex") in his surviving charters, but in the letter he uses the elaborate and high-ranking style "Alfonso by the power and assent of Christ king of Spain" ("Adefonsus pro Christi nutu at que potentia Hispaniae rex").A similarly grandiose title is given to Alfonso in the contemporary "Chronica Prophetica" (883)
