text: 
Jan. 13. Lateran. Pope Innocent III rebukes the king of Cyprus. The archidiaconus Famagustanus has brought letters from the king, complaining that the patriarch of Jerusalem had annulled the election of the thesaurarius Nicosiensis Ecclesiae to the archbishopric of Nicosia. The form of that election may have accorded with ancient custom, but it infringed the laws of the Church. The pope orders the king to accept without contradiction the election by the canons of Nicosia.
