Letter CLXII. To Haimeric, the Chancellor, on the same subject. (A.D. 1133)
I have often testified to my Lord the Bishop of Paris of your frequent and kindly mention of him. Lo! now the demand is made upon you to show not in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth, both that I was not speaking, and that you have not written, anything but the truth. So this concerns you, not only for the Bishop's sake, but also for the sake of your other friends, who would certainly be greatly concerned about you, if by any chance this cause should happen to go contrary to their expectation.
Frequentem et amicabilem recordationem, qua dominum episcopum Parisiensem commendare soletis, ego postmodum ipsi frequenter testatus sum. En a vobis exigitur non verbo aut lingua, sed opere et veritate probare, nec me fuisse fallacem, nec vos mendacem. Sic vestra interest, non solum propter episcopum, sed et propter alios amicos vestros, qui pro vobis certe graviter, si quo modo praeter spem procedere causam contingeret, turbarentur.
