text: Feb. 4. Jerusalem. Amalric, per dei gratiam in sancta civitate Ierusalem Latinorum rex quintus, makes a sealed eleemosynary grant to the leprosary of St Lazarus of Jerusalem and its sick. He confirms a rent of 72 besants, taken from the royal revenues from David Gate and payable in 4 instalments of 18 besants each at Easter, the Nativity of St John the Baptist, Michaelmas and Christmas. The rent is made up in the following way. The king has given 50 of these besants for the maintenance of one leper in perpetuity. Added to this is a rent of 10 besants, drawn from the money fief [assisia] attached to the pincernatus, which was given by Odo de Sancto Amando, and a rent of 12 besants was given by the king in exchange for a house next to the macellum in Jerusalem, which the brothers of St Lazarus surrendered to him. Witnesses: Hanfredus constabularius; Rainaldus Sydoniensis; Willelmus marescallus; Milo dapifer; Giraldus de Pogi; Amalricus de Franli; Anselmus de Brigida; Roardus de Ioppe; Barisanus frater eius; Iohannes de Ualencinis; Adam Niger; Fulco frater eius. The charter was drawn up by Radulfus episcopus Bethleem regisque cancellarius.
