[Footnote 91: Ensem elevat, eumque a sinistra parte
scapularum, tanta virtute intorsit, ut quod pectus medium
disjunxit spinam et vitalia interrupit; et sic lubricus
ensis super crus dextrum integer exivit: sicque caput
integrum cum dextra parte corporis immersit gurgite,
partemque quae equo praesidebat remisit civitati, (Robert.
Mon. p. 50.) Cujus ense trajectus, Turcus duo factus est
Turci: ut inferior alter in urbem equitaret, alter
arcitenens in flumine nataret, (Radulph. Cadom. c. 53, p.
304.) Yet he justifies the deed by the stupendis viribus of
Godfrey; and William of Tyre covers it by obstupuit populus
facti novitate .... mirabilis, (l. v. c. 6, p. 701.) Yet it
must not have appeared incredible to the knights of that
age.]
