Conrad III of Germany

"Conrad was ignorant of the seizure of his camp and the disaster which had occurred. Suddenly he looked up and saw the battle from afar, and immediately he snatched up his standard, for he was a most energetic soldier, and shouted out to the listening people: "Great warriors. I see men valiantly resisting our enemies and, if I am not mistaken, the flash of their arms suggests that the resisters are allies, since the Saracens do not use breastplates in battle. Let anyone who has zeal for God come with me! Let us fight for our brothers! Let heaven's will be done!""
