Pope Alexander IV writes to the prior of St Lawrence in Acre (Acconensis) and the cantor of Tyre (Tyrensis) concerning the above, relating that, if the abbot and convent fail to carry out the pope's instructions, he orders the addressees to warn and induce them to do so.

Pope Alexander IV writes to the master and brothers of the house of the knighthood of the Temple of Jerusalem, in a long arenga praising their efforts for the Holy Land and emphasizing their subordination to the pope alone. Answering their prayers, following the example of Pope I[nnocentius IV], the pope grants that no prejudice or loss can be generated for them or their subjects via graces, indulgences, or letters to be granted by the Apostolic See to any churches or individuals in any form if they do not mention the addressees' house, their subject houses, their brothers, and their order.

Pope Alexander IV writes to Petrus Vigerii (Vigier), canon Xanctonensis (Saintes), professor of civil law, relating that since, as he has learned, the addressee's devotion to study renders him worthy for a grace, and because of the pope's affection for the late Patriarch R[obert de Nantes] of Jerusalem, whose nephew he is known to have been, the pope responds to his requests by allowing him to receive and keep two ecclesiastical benefices even if they have care of souls and one of them is a dignity or office, the constitution of the General Council notwithstanding.

text: May 14. Naples. Pope Alexander IV writes to the bishop and archdeacon of Acre (Acconenses), relating that Archbishop [Hugo] of Nicosia (Nicosiensis) complained to him that the late King H[enry] of Cyprus had withheld some tithes and other ecclesiastical incomes from him, his church in Nicosia, and other churches of the diocese of Nicosia (Nicosiensis), and otherwise caused them serious damage and harm. The king left as executors of his will the noble men Guy of Ibelin (Guido de Ibellino), Philippus de Novaria, and Robertus de Monte Gisartio of the city and diocese of Nicosia (Nicosienses), but so far they have refused to calculate these tithes and incomes and to make satisfaction for them and the damages to the archbishop and the churches. Instead they maintain the frivolous excuse that the king calculated what he owed while he was alive. Although for some things the king made an insufficient calculation and for others he did none at all, he ordered his executors to make satisfaction for the rest of the damages caused on his account, even applying to this the goods that had come into the executors' own hands. Therefore the pope is sending a letter to these nobles ordering them, if it is so, to make a complete calculation of the tithes and incomes that were withheld and to make complete satisfaction for them and the damages to the archbishop and churches. The pope orders the addressees to force the nobles to carry this out. Otherwise, they shall first warn them and then use ecclesiastical censure, without appeal, various obstacles notwithstanding.

text: May 18. Naples. Pope Alexander IV writes to the master and brothers of the Hospital of Jerusalem, relating that, since the senses of humans are prone to evil from adolescence and the flesh always pushes one toward sin, despite the splendour of their religious observance, because of human frailty it happens sometimes that clerics and laymen among them go to excess in cases whereby they incur sentences of excommunication and for clerics the mark of irregularity. Since having to obtain absolution and dispensation may provide an occasion for them to wander and for others to murmur, the pope answers their prayers by allowing their priors, who are priests, to give such absolution and dispensation to those of the Hospital who require it, whether the infractions were done before or after they joined the order, provided that fitting satisfaction is done for injury and loss – unless they are so difficult or serious that the perpetrators should be sent to the Apostolic See. Valid for one year after this letter is received. May 18. Naples.
