But within a few yeares after, this Eustace died, and then was Constance maried to Raimond earle of Tholouse. Malm. Polydor. Matth. Paris. Howbeit they got nothing of the king but faire words, and promises of amendment in that which had béene doone otherwise than equitie required which promises were vtterlie vnperformed, and so the councell brake vp.
"Fear me not," answered Raimond: "I know well the secret mind of his Holiness, whose delegate and representative I am; and could he see but the legitimate and natural limit set to the power of the patricians, who, in their arrogance, have set at nought the authority of the Church itself, be sure that he would smile on the hand that drew the line.
One of the oldest belongs to the first half of the fifteenth century and is ascribed to Raimond Féraud; the latest are of our own day by Roumanille, Crousillat, Mistral, Girard, Gras, and a score more. But only a few have been written to live. The memory of many once-famous noël-writers is preserved now either mainly or wholly by a single song.

If her soul lives, her mortal part may die. The people press around her, worship her, and kiss her garments. She is detained in the background by the crowd. She comes! 'tis she! She rushes from the church.
And for such a man do I live to hear an aged prince and a pope's vicar plead for mercy? Fie, fie! But I will be even with ye. The next poor man whom the law sentences to death, for your sake will I pardon." Raimond again drew aside the Tribune, while Colonna struggled to suppress his rage.
