The com- mander of the Romans at the time was a valiant English knight, by name Sir John Hawkwood, who had resided for a long time in that part of Italy : he was well ac- quainted with the frontier, and had under him a large body of men-at-arms for the defence of Pope Urban, who was residing at Rome. Now the pope himself was not at all alarmed at the arrival of the duke. When informed that he was on his march with 9, 000 lances, and that it was uncertain whether he would not come to Rome to det...hrone him, since they were all Clementists, he replied, " Christus pro- tegat nos. ' The duke, however, did not enter Rome, for he had no wish to make war upon the inhabitants, but solely aimed to accomplish his object on the terms accord- ing to which he had left France. Wherever he passed he kept up kingly state, and all praised him for the punc- tuality of his payments. His adversary, the Lord Charles de Durazzo, was residing in the city of Naples, of which place he signed himself king, since the Queen of Naples had died without leaving any heir by marriage ; and he England, France and Spain 233 regarded the gift \vhich the queen had made of her domin- ions to the pope as null, declaring- that she hud no power to do so.
