Baldwin, dei gratia Ierosolimorum et sancte civitatis Latinorum quartus rex, together with his mother Melisende, regina, confirms the agreement, negotiated in the presence of King Fulk in Jerusalem and Nablus and made between the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem and Robertus Sancti Egidii and his wife Odula, with the agreement of Rohardus vicecomes and his wife Gilla and of Patriarch William, who confirmed it. Robertus and his wife give the Hospital of St John of Jerusalem, Raimundus magister and its brothers the land of Emaus with its casalia, just as Robert had held it as a feudum from Rohardus and his wife. In return the brothers of the Hospital will pay Robertus and his heirs each year a census of 250 besants at Easter or within 40 days and another 250 besants at the Feast of All Saints. The land will revert to Robert if the Hospitallers fail to pay, but Robert can, if he wishes, make an eleemosynary grant to the brothers of up to 100 of these besants, or sell or commute them. Such an act will be confirmed by Rohardus as an eleemosynary gift. The remaining 400 besants will continue to be paid.
