Phillip II King of France to his bailliffs and provosts in Normandy: orders to protect the Templars, their men, and their property and to leave them in peaceful possession as in the time of Henry II and Richard I of England, before the duchy came into royal hands. - Rouen, Bibliothèque publique, Cartulaire de Normandie, fol. 21r. - Register, end of 13th cent., parchment, quarto, 89 fols., probably by one scribe from the bailiwick of Caen. - Edition in Cartulaire normand, no. 1074, 285.

Philippus, Dei gratia, Francorum rex, universis ballivis et prepositis suis per Normanniam constitutis, ad quos littere iste pervenerint, salutem.

Mandantes vobis precipimus quatinus fratres militie Templi et homines et res eorum in jure suo manuteneatis et deffendatis, et faciatis ut ipsi habeant et in pace teneant omnes redditus suos in potestatibus vestris cum omnibus libertatibus suis et omnes elemosinas suas, sicut illas habuerunt et tenuerunt temporibus Henrici et Ricardi , quondam regum Anglie, et sicut illas habebant quando terra in manum nostram devenit, nec sustineatis eos super hiis indebite molestari.

Actum anno dominice incarnationis Mo CCo quarto, mense Februarii.
