Spurious? Letter from Alexius I Komnenus
to Count Robert of Flanders (ca. 1095)
The holy places they desecrate and destroy in numberless ways,
and they threaten them with worse treatment. And who does not
lament over these things? Who has not compassion? Who is not
horrified? Who does not pray? For almost the entire land from
Jerusalem to Greece, and the whole of Greece with its upper
regions, which are Cappadocia Minor, Cappadocia Major, Phrygia,
Bithynia, Lesser Phrygia (i.e. the Troad), Pontus, Galatia, Lydia,
Pamphylia, Isauria, Lycia, and the principal islands Chios and
Mytilene, and many other regions and islands which we cannot
even enumerate, as far as Thrace, have already been invaded by
them, and now almost nothing remains except Constantinople,
which they are threatening to snatch aware from us very soon,
unless the aid of God and the faithful Latin Christians should
reach us speedily.

How does one divide these?
Item si voluerit dividere 9000 per 7, ponat 7 sub primo
zephyro, et dividat 9 per7, exibit 1 et remanent 2:
ponat ergo 1 sub 9 et 2 desuper, quibus copulatis
cum 0, quod est secus 9, faciunt 20 que dividat per 7,
exibunt 2 et remanent 6: ponat 2 sub illo zephyro, et 6
desuper, quibus copulatis cum sequenti zephyro,
faciunt 60 que dividat per 7, exibunt 8 et remanent 4:
ponat 8 sub illo zephyro 0, et desuper ponat4, quibus
copulatis cum zephyro primi gradus, faciunt 40, que
dividat per 7, exibunt5, et remanent 5: ponat 5 sub
ipso 0 et remanentia 5 ponat super virgulam de 7 ex
parte descripta, et ante ipsam ponat numerum
exeuntem ex divisione.
