The king in part of satisfaction for his trespass against his father, agreed with Phillip the French king, to take upon them the recovery of the holy land: and for the same, sold and let out much, and gathered divers ways, great treasures for the journey. Besides, by the commandment of Pope Clement the third, a tenth was exacted of the whole Realm: in such sort, as the Christians should make to the King 70000.
