I shall tell Rabbi Yom Tov what may be disclosed, so that he may communicate it in writing to our holy teacher. Then we may give thanks to our Savior, who has turned the king’s heart in our favor.

When the king heard about this terrible affair, he was astonished. He said to the queen, “Today your brother has brought disgrace upon my kingdom.”

Yesterday I went to the archbishop of Sens to secure the release of those imprisoned by his brother, the wicked count, and of the young people who had been forcibly converted.

I paid the archbishop one hundred and twenty pounds and promised another hundred pounds for the count, for which I have already provided security. The archbishop gave a written pledge that the prisoners would be released. Concerning the young people who had been forcibly converted, he will request that they be permitted to return to the Lord.

The prisoners then departed joyfully. They left the wicked man’s control with nothing but their clothing, for he retained everything they possessed, including their debts and money.

The archbishop also gave us a written promise for the future: accusations will no longer be brought against Jews without cause.

The Lord has accomplished all these things for us.
