comments: [240] This interpretation of the incomprehensible sentence ‘que protenditur a porta sancti Iohannis ad parvum mare iuxta turrim Hospitalis et subtus volta scale ipsius turris, ut eam qu... porta sancti Iohannis usque ad introitum prefate volte a parte maris … plateam curiae vestre amplietis”, sigillo donat et mandat, ut “strata illa ante domum … ad balnea vertat usque in aliam stratam, quae ante balnea porrigitur’ is provided by Riley-Smith, ‘Guy of Lusignan’, pp. 112-13, although it is opposed by Mayer, UKJ 2:829-30.

He gives frater Curaudus hospitalis Alemannorum preceptor and the brothers and sick of [the Hospital of St Mary of the Germans] the land in Acre on which their house and hospital [hospitale] is established.
