However, if both these cities were to be lost, the payment would cease, but if only one of them were to remain under Christian control, the payment will be made. Details are provided concerning the enforcement and renewal of the contract. It is also noted that the Hospitallers still have to pay tithes to the Church of Caesarea.

text: August 12. Lyons. Pope Innocent IV writes to the former bishop of Paphos [Giovanni Romano] residing in Acre, relating that the scholar Simone Bulgaro, son of the noble man Bulgarino Bulgaro, citizen of Genoa, informed him that, since the pope once wrote to the patriarch of Jerusalem (Robert de Nantes) concerning his reception and provision in the church of Sidon, and he was received as a canon and brother by part of the chapter of Sidon, the patriarch did not want to proceed, as Simone asserts, with the pope’s mandate against the other part of the chapter, which continued to refuse to accept him, so Simone was forced to take recourse to the pope. The pope orders the addressee to proceed according to the letter he sent to the patriarch, forcing those who contradict with ecclesiastical censure. August 12. Lyons.
