“The terrible lord of Montlhéry took the cross, but did not go further than Antioch. When the Christians were besieged there, he left his companions in arms, his brother pilgrims, let himself down from the walls by a rope, after the example of some others, and returned from Asia to Hurepoix with the nickname of Rope-dancer. All this humanized the haughty baron, and he gave his daughter in marriage to one of the king's sons, with his castle as her dowry.”
