1135: Serment de fidélité prêté par Guillem VI,
seigneur de Montpellier, au comte et à la comtesse de Melgueil.


 

Ego, Guillelmus de Monte Pessulano, filius Ermensendis, te Berengarium Raimundum, filium Dulcie, nec te Beatricem, filiam Guillelme, non capiam, nec auferam vobis vitam neque membrum, nec homo, nec femina, mea arte, nec mea ope, nec meo consilio; neque auferam tibi, Berengario Raimundo, Beatricem uxorem tuam, nec aliquid homo, nec femina,mea arte, nec mea ope, nec meo concilio, neque castrum Melgorii auferam vobis, nec inde auferam; nec aliquid homo, nec femina, mea arte, nec mea ope, nec meo consilio. Et si aliquid homo, vel femina, abstulerit vobis castrum Melgorii, vel alium vestrum honorem, in Sustantionensi comitatu pertinentem ad castrum Melgorii, postquam me consilio comonueritis per sacramentum, et de illa comonitione non substraham me, ego inde recte ero vobis adjutor. Et si aliquid homo, vel femina, vos ceperit, ego cum eo finem, pacem, nec societatem nullo modo habebo, donec tu eis liberatus a captione, sine omni redemptione honoris et peccunie. Et si aliquid homo, vel femina de Sustantionensi comitatu, in hoc ipso comitatu vobis guerram fecerit, ego inde vobis recte adjutor ero, exceptis fratribus meis, et excepto Bernardo de Andusia et infantibus suis, et Raimundo Trencavillo, et exceptis meis hominibus; sed si mei homines nolentes facere justiciam guerram vobis facerent, ego de hoc non manutenebo contra vos, et castrum de Monte Ferrando, et ipsum Montem Ferrandum, postquam a me redemptus fuerit, et eum vobis restituero, recognosco in eodem sacramento.

ltem ab hac hora in antea Melgoriensam monetam non faciam contrafacere, nec aliam monetam argenti fieri faciam in Montepessulano, nec in toto Sustancionensi comitatu nec in alio loco comitatu, contra istam, nec homo, nec femina, meo consilio, nec ingenio meo, nec arte mea. Et si homo, vel femina in toto Substancionensi comitatu hoc fecerit, cum vos per nuncios vostros, vel per nuncium me commonueritis, et de illa commonicione non substraham me adjutor vobis sine enganno inde ero. Hoc autem de moneta ego ita tenebo vobis et attendam, si vos tenueritis michi, et non violaveritis illud quod michi jurasti de moneta et de tribus denariis: videlicet si vos violaveristis illud quocl jurastis michi de moneta et de tribus denariis, ego non vero vobis in sacramento quin possem eam facere; sed vos eritis michi et succesoribus meis saccramento obligati. De aliis vero omnibus que suprascripta sunt, excepto de moneta, vobis ero obligatus in perpetuum sine omni retentione.
