HO' the Christian Kingdom of Jerufalem was fubverted, as we have in our former Number feen, yet the Christian Power that fubfifted in Palestine and Syria, was by no means defpicable; the Franks were ftill a mighty People in those parts, poffeffed of many ftrong Holds, advantageous Pofts, and very confiderable Places; very willing and pretty well able to defend themselves from the Incroachments of the Soltán, and to crofs his defign of rooting them out; a Task he never with all his mighty Power and fage Conduct, was fo happy as to fee the end of.

He went to Damafcus, but made a trifling ftay there, of a very few days, receiving Intelligence that the Franks had a defign upon Hubeil; at which he took the Alarm, called in his Army, and was juft at this time reinforced by a Power from Affyria, and by others from other parts, all engaged in the profecution of the HOLY WAR.

He then led on his united Forces against the Territories of the Syrian Tripoly, to make an experiment of the Enemy's Courage and Skill; whereby he acquired a no mean Booty of Arms and other Valuables.
