Aug. 11. Orvieto. Pope Honorius III has heard that King John of Jerusalem has left Damietta and returned to Acre because of the threat to his dominions, but he has also heard that John intends to attack the kingdom of [Cilician] Armenia. Honorius forbids John to take this step, with the threat of excommunication. John should work for that Christian unity in the East, for which Cardinal Pelagius has argued strongly.
