who_o have_v write_v more_o of_o the_o history_n than_o any_o of_o the_o modern_n say_v that_o he_o be_v of_o opinion_n according_a to_o godfrey_n of_o viterbo_n that_o pepin_n make_v war_n twice_o

pepin_n be_v advertise_v hereof_o which_o cause_v he_o forthwith_o to_o come_v &_o assail_v they_o once_o again_o with_o the_o great_a force_n he_o can_v gather_v together_o as_o shall_v be_v

that_o time_n of_o giovanni_n and_o mauritio_n the_o young_a see_v that_o himself_o affirm_v in_o another_o place_n that_o heraclea_n be_v raze_v in_o their_o time_n now_o because_o all_o those_o which_o have_v write_v the_o venetian_a history_n do_v steadfast_o deny_v that_o the_o city_n be_v ever_o in_o subjection_n the_o matter_n can_v not_o thus_o have_v come_v venetian_n to_o pass_v that_o through_o the_o patriarch_n fortunato_n his_o report_n make_v to_o charles_n that_o the_o venetian_n contrary_a to_o the_o agreement_n swear_v betwixt_o he_o and_o nicephorus_n whereby_o they_o

and_o because_o he_o have_v destroy_v heraclea_n and_o equiline_n and_o thereby_o great_o liberty_n weaken_v their_o whole_a power_n the_o common_a report_n be_v that_o the_o venetian_n with_o their_o

to_o forsake_v the_o friendship_n of_o nicephorus_n some_o strife_n arise_v soon_o after_o betwixt_o the_o two_o empire_n concern_v dalmatia_n the_o venetian_n have_v open_o take_v nicephorus_n part_n
