[171] Chron. Turonens. ann. 1225.--Matt. Paris ann. 1225, pp. 227-9. A poetaster of the period, in describing the council, depicts Raymond's discomfiture with emphasis:

”Et s'i vint li quens de St. Gille, Ki n'i fist vallant une tille De sa besougne, quant vint la, Qu' esc.u.meniies s'en r'ala, Ausi com il i fu venus, Voire plus, s'il pot estre plus.”

--Chronique de Philippe Mousket, 25385-90.

[172] Chron. Turonens. ann. 1225.--Matt. Paris ann. 1225, pp.

227-8.--Possibly the chroniclers may be guilty of exaggeration, for the letters of Honorius only ask for a single prebend in each cathedral and collegiate church (Martene Thesaur. I. 929). In either case the encroachments of Rome were only postponed, for in 1385 Charles le Sage complained that nearly all the benefices of France were practically held by the cardinals, who carried the revenue to Italy, so that the churches were falling to ruin, the abbeys deserted, the orphanages and hospitals diverted from their purpose, divine service had ceased in many places, and the lands of the Church were uncultivated. To remedy this, he seized all such revenues and ordered them to be expended on the objects for which they had been given to the Church (Ibid. I. 1612).
