England, the other, Alphonso Of Castile. This last, who had the greatest chance of success, was preparing to come to take possession of the crown which was Offered him, when an attempt of the Saracens of Spain against Cor dova determined him to suspend his depar ture. He contented himself with sending envoys into Italy, with rich presents, to bring the pope into his interests. Alexander accept ed these marks Of the king's munifieence and replied hypocritically to the deputies: You know, my brethren, that usage has for a long time established that the possession of the kingdom Of Germany should be allied to that of the imperial crown; let your king then be consecrated at aix-la-chapelle, and we pro mise him our protection to cause him to be recognised as emperor. Let him, however, be careful how he quits Cordova to lose the crown Of Castile and come into Germany, when it will be no longer possible for us to make his cause triumph. This reply-is suf ficient to show the bad faith Of Alexander, since he had already conferred on Richard the title Of king Of the Romans, as is authentically proved by his own letters and those of several Italian lords, who had taken the oath Of fidelity to that prince.
