reafter we shall make mention. And on that day the
said Pope founded the church of San Gregorio, and called it after his
own name, which church was built by them of the house of Mozzi, which
were merchants for the Pope and for the Church, and in a little time
were come to great riches and state; and the said Pope dwelt in their
palaces at the head of the Rubaconte Bridge on the further side of
Arno, whilst he abode in Florence; and King Charles abode in the
garden of the Frescobaldi, and the Emperor Baldwin at the Bishop's
Palace. But on the fourth day thereafter, the Pope departed from
Florence, and went to sojourn in Mugello with Cardinal Ottaviano,
which was of the house of the Ubaldini, who were his hosts, and who
did him great honour. At the end of the summer, the Pope departed, and
his cardinals and King Charles, and went over the mountains to
Lyons-on-Rhone in Burgundy. And the reason why the Pope departed
suddenly from Florence was that when he had caused the representatives
of the Ghibelline party to come to Florence, and to kiss the
representatives of the Guelfs on the mouth in token of peace, and to
remain in Florence to complete the treaty of peace, and they returned
to the place of their sojourn in the house of the Tebalducci in Orto
San Michele, it was told them, whether it were true or false, that
King Charles' marshal, on the petition of the great Guelfs would cause
them to be hewn in pieces if they did not depart from Florence. And
that this was the cause we believe by reason of the virulence of the
factions. And straightway they left Florence and departed, and the
said peace was broken; wherefore the Pope was sorely disturbed, and
departed from Florence, leaving the city under an interdict, and went,
as we have said, to Mugello; and for this cause he continued in great
wrath against King Charles.
