Excerpt from The Modern Part of an Universal History, From the Earliest Accounts to the Present Time, Vol. 4: Compiled From Original Authors
The care which the emperor took to repair the fortifi a.d cations of Doryleum, gave occafion for a rupture. The foltan, pretending not to know the defign of his coming; fent to intreat him to retire; and the Turks, unwilling to be driven out of a fruitful territory, fo convenient for feeding their flocks, made frequent inroads, burning Vilé Iages, and ravaging the country. However, Manuel went on with the work; andwhen the fortifications of that place were finifhed, he undertook thofe of Sableum. This conduct provoked the foltan to accufe him of breach of treaties; while~the emperor, in his turn, upbraided the foltan with ingratitude.
