7C i which might be offered by a numerous, noble, and wealthy society, such as the Templars formed. Boniface's successor, Clement V. Was the creature of Philip, to whom he owed his dignity, and at his accession had bound himself to the per- formance of six articles in favour of Philip, one of which was not expressed. It was probably inserted without any definite object, and intended to serve the interest of the French mo- narch on any occasion which might present itself. It had been the object ...of Pope Boniface to form the three Military Orders into one, and he had summoned them to Rome for that purpose, but his death prevented it. Clement, on this, June 6, 1306, addressed the Grand Masters of the Templars and the Hospitallers, inviting them to come to con- sult with him about the best mode of supporting the Kings of Armenia and Cyprus. He desired them to come as se- cretly as possible, and with a very small train, as they would find abundance of their Knights this side the sea ; and he directed them to provide for the defence of Limisso in Cyprus during their short absence.
