'185 and Richard of England, a big bully miscalled a noble knight, did but little save to bluster and blunder ; he sneaked back without having even seen Jerusalem, only to fall a prisoner into the hands of Austria and nearly ruin his neglected realm of England by stupidity, selfishness, and a show of so-called chivalry. Out of it all Saladin came with greater glory than ever ; but it caused his death in 1 193, at the early age of fifty-seven. Weakened by exposure, con- tinual fighting, restless...ness, and worry, he caught a fever and died in Damascus the greatest Moslem since Mohammed, the most noble, most just, most fearless, and most famous of all the Saracen masters of the East. He united under one sovereignty all the Eastern lands from the Nile to the Euphrates ; he built up and beautified Cairo ; and, in the midst of war, had ever thoughts of the peace and prosperity of his kingdom. His three elder sons divided his realm between them. But they had neither the ability nor the wisdom of their father, and were forever quarrelling over their "rights.
