Leo was called on to pay the conquerors 36, 000 silver bezants, equal to 280 pounds of gold. His silverware, crown, and wardrobe were taken and only restored him on payment of three hundred ducats. In addition, 260 — the Genoese admiral, Pietro de Campo Fregoso, the brother of Domenico, the Doge, kept for himself the finest jewel In the royal crown, a ruby, and extracted a promise of 10, 000 gold florins to be paid him later. So much for Genoa's obedience to the Pope! Throughout the wars of the... Cru- saders whether against the Moslems or the Greeks, the Genoese and Venetians had their eye only on profit. Some- times they gave a little assis- tance to their Latin brethren, but only as a business policy. Now that the Christian cause was irretrievably lost in the East, they had no further rea- son to retain the mask. Fei;>c^i v:;''!:';/ ' -^ . :. , •■. "■"'.
