To this imperfect capture and speedy rescue I apply the of Cinnamus, l. ii. c. 19, p. 49. Muratori, on tolerable evidence (Annali d'Italia, tom. ix. p. 420, 421), laughs at the delicacy of the French, who maintain,
marisque nullo
impediente periculo ad regnum proprium reversum esse;
yet I observe that their advocate, Ducange, is less positive as the commentator on Cinnamus, than as the editor of Joinville.
