FRUITS OF _THE TENZON_: THE BACK OF SAINT-POL, AND THE FRONT OF MONTFERRAT Count Richard found time, while he was at Poietiers awaiting the Aquitanian levies, to write six letters to Jehane Saint-Pol.

Of these some, with their bearers, fell by the wayside.

The first said: 'I am in the way of liberty, but by a red road.

Have hopes of me.' Jehane was long in answering.
