For he being dismounted from his horse on a day of battaile against the English he gaue him his owne horse whereby the King escaped to a place of safety In like manner he fortified the Bastions and new wals of Auignon whereof hee was made Gouernor by the Pope Being great Maister hee tooke his way to Rhodes in the yeare 1377. and being required by the Generall of the Venetians Army to vnite their forces together they went to Morca in the yeare 1378. where they besiedged the Citty of Patras and tooke both it and the Castle The great Maister fighting man to man with the Gouernor of Patras slewe him manfully Afterwarde in an ambuscado of Turkes hee was taken prisoner by reason hee was too well knowne to them Whereuppon to worke his liberty Patras and other places which had bin won from them were re-deliuered to the Turkes And yet notwithstanding they would néeds carrie him with them into Albania where they kept him as a slaue thrée yeares In the year 1381. the great Maisters fréedome was bought with money and hee returning to Rhodes the Ambassadors of Smirna came to desire succour of him In the yeare 1391. Baiazeth Emperour of the Turkes made some preparation to besiege Rhodes whereupon Phillebert de Naillac Priour of Aquitaine was sent by his fellow knights to Auignon with Letters to the great Maister to require aide against Baiazeth Naillac returning to Rhodes in the yeare 1396. Heredia the great Maister died and was buried at Caspa 33 Newes beeing brought to Rhodes that Heredia the great Maister was dead Phillebert de Naillac grand Priour of Aquitaine borne in France succéeded in his roome At the Spring time he was inuited by Sigismond King of Hungaria to come and assist him with his Knights against Baiazeth which hee did in person in the yeare 1397. And then was a battaile fought at Nicopolis where Baiazeth had the victorie the K. of Hungary being glad to saue himselfe and with the Great Master retyred to Rhodes Thither also did the Emperor of Constantinople send all his precious Iewelles to be kept by the Great Maister fearing least Baiazeth shoulde surprize Constantinople But hee was disappointed by Tamberlain who ouercame Baiazeth and kepte him captiue in a Cage of yron so long as he liued and the siege of Constantinople being raised the great Master sent home again the Emperors Iewels After the foyle of Baiazeth the great Maister de Naillac sailed with an army into Caria there builded an inexpugnable fortresse which he named S.

And not long after the Soldan of Egypt puft vp with the victory which he wonne at Cyprus brake the Truce and prepared a great Armye with intent to besiedge Rhodes But when hee heard that the Great Maister was prouided of sufficient strength to withstand him he left off his determination and so the Order that way remained in quiet This Great Master founded and endowed a Chappel in the Citty of Rhodes which afterwarde hee made a Church for his Knights And the 29. of October hee died after hee had gouerned in his place with much wisedome 16. years an halfe 35 The sixt of Nouemb. in the same year 1437 Iohn de Lastic borne in Auuergne was elected Great Maister albeit he was absent at his election remained in Auuergne whereof he was prior Before he wold go to Rhodes he made a general assembly of his knightes at Valentia in the month of Decem. 1438. when he cam to Rhodes he began to build the new hospital for sick people which the precedent great M. by his wil had appointed to be done at his expences In his time Pope Eugenius 4. was deposed by the Counsell of Basile and Foelix the fift created in his place who was held at Rome to be an Antipope In the yeare 1440. the Soldane of Egypt beeing come néer to the port of the isle of Cast-Lerouge which appertained to the Knights and from thence turning towards Rhodes he was put to flight by an army of the Knights who had but eight Gallies and in the Soldanes army there were eightéene and there were slaine about seauen hundred Sarazins beside a

of a prize so signale and beneficiall to all christendome Pope Anastasius the fourth gaue and granted verie great priuiledges to the Order of these Knights of S. Iohn of Ierusalem the first day of Nouember in the same yeare exempting them from the iurisdiction and controule of the East Ecclesiasticall Prelates which was the cause of great troubles betwéene the Bishops of the country there and the knights of this order albeit the Pope and his Cardinals maintained them still stoutly Some haue held that this Great M. Raymond was a Florentine but the most credible opinion is that hee was a French-man a Natiue of Daulphine issued of a verie Noble house called du Puy whereof namelie ●acques Bosius the Italian who hath amplie written the historie of this order is an ingenuous witnesse Hee died in the yeare 1160. with this reputation that hee had bin a man of good and vertuous life fearing god valiant wise and aduised in the affaires of the world and one wel approued in warlicke exercises 3 After that Raymond was deceased there succéeded in the Maister-ship and gouernment of the Order F. Auger de Balben of whome there is found nothing deseruing memorie but that in his time died King Baldwin the third who was not onlie much bemoaned of the christians but likewise of the Infidelles who saide That the Christians had iust cause to lament for the death of Baldwine because they had lost a Prince that had not his equall in the world This Great-Maister Auger after he had gouerned his charge in peace and repose about thrée yeares died in the yeare 1163. 4 Arnold de Comps was next elected Mayster in his place who was a man of great spirite valour and councell And in short time after his election he entered into Egypt with Amaulrie the new King of Hierusalem who made warre vpon the Califfe of Egypt because he refused to continue and pay the anuall tribute wherein hée had bound himselfe to King Baldwine the third for a perpetuall payment to the Kinges of Hierusalem Arnold after he had with great wisedom and courage gouerned the Hospitall of S. Iohn about foure yeares died in the yeare 1167. and then succeeded him 5 Gilbert d'Assaly or de Sailly who was of stout mind and so liberall that hee flowed in bounty especially to his Souldiers so that he fel into great expences and wasted the whole treasure of the house Insomuch that hee was enforced to borrow Money at interest with conditi●ion that if he tooke from the Infidels the Citty of Belbeis anciently called Pelusium he should stand acquitted to his Brother-hood as indéed he did and victoriously performed his promise the third day of Nouember 1168. In which yeare he held a Chapter generall in Hierusalem where perceiuing that he was greatly indebted and had charged the Hospitall with more than an hundred thousand Crownes of méere debts beeing also much grieued that his attemptes found not equall Issue to his high desires hee determined to renounce his great Maistership which he did in the yeare 1169. 6 By his resignation or renunciation rather another Knight was chosen Great Maister named F. Gastus or Castus of whom there is nothing found that makes to any purpose of this our briefe History And the breuity of his time of gouernment was the cause by reason he was not a full yeare in the charge but dyed in the very same yeare of his election and had 7 F. Ioubert a very religious man for his successor who in the yeare 1176. ioyned himselfe with Phillip Earle of Flanders that was then come into Syria to assist King Baldwine the fourth against Saladine who had a very powerfull Army miraculously vanquished by the Christians that were but few in number in the moneth of Nouember 1177. at which time the Emperour Frederick Barbarossa and Pope Alexander the third were reconciled together At length Saladine with-drew himselfe from the Countrey of Damas in the year 1179. And then dyed Ioubert Maister of the Hospitallers a man very charytable to the poore and sickly It is saide that méere conceite of griefe to behold so manyfestly the ruine of christian affaires in Syria with the shamefull and damageable truce made betwéene the King of Ierusalem and the Earle of Tripoli by his example with Saladine was the onely cause of abridging his dayes hauing gouerned the Order of Saint Iohn about tenne yeares 8 In his stead was elected Roger de Molins a man of high discretion and courage In his time happened a great dissention betwéene the Prince of Antioche and the Patriarch of the said place and this Roger was chosen to be mediator of peace and agréement betwéene them which followed in the yeare 1181. This Roger with Heraclius Patriarch of Ierusalem and Arnald de Trogo Master of the Knights Templers was sent by the King of Hierusalem in quality of an Ambassador into the West to require ayde of the Christian Princes These Ambassadours were kindly entertained by the Emperour King Phillip Augustus Gods gift sirnamed the Conquerour the Kings of Sicily England and Hungary they returned back againe into Syria all but the Maister of the Templers who dyed by the way In the yeare 1187. the Earle of Tripoli being leagued and confederated with Saladine graunted him passage and reléeued his Army with victuals And Saladine hauing besiedged the citty of Ptolomais the Knights of Saint Iohn and the Templers ioyning together disordered the whole Army and Roger the great Mayster fighting valiantlie there dyed with the fall of his Horse vpon him and smothered in his Armour as also being much troden on with the enemies Horses His body being afterward found among the dead was buried with great woe and sorrow And notwithstanding this losse of the great Maister yet the Knights of Saint Iohn and the Templers won the day of battaile against the Turkes and Sarrazins of whom died then in the field about fiftéen thousand the first day of May in the yeare 1187 After whom 9 F. Garnier of Naples in Syria which was the ancient cittie of Sichem in Canaan was elected great Maister In his time was a bloudy battaile fought betwéene the Christians and Infidels wherein the King of Hierusalem named Guy de Lusignan was taken Prisoner with the very chiefe Lordes of his Kingdome It is said also that the Christians had then the true Crosse in the battell but it was taken from them by the Infidels and almost all the Knightes of Hierusalem and the Templers were one part slaine in the battaile and the rest beheaded in cold bloud F. Garnier after he had fought verie manfully yet being mortally wounded in many places of his body by the goodnesse and swiftnes of his Horse escaped into the Citty of Ascalon where ten daies after hee departed into a better life the fouretéenth of Iuly hauing béene great Maister but two months and sixe daies 10 The twenty day of the saide moneth of Iuly 1187. the Knights
