'King John threatening to cut off the Noses of the Bishops', c1860, (c1860). On 3rd July 1205, John became involved in a dispute with Pope Innocent III that led to the king's excommunication. Under mounting political pressure, John negotiated terms for a reconciliation with the papal legate Pandulf Verraccio in May 1213 at the Templar Church at Dover. The Kingdom of England was given to the papacy for a feudal service of 1,000 marks annually. From The Comic History of England, Volume I, by Gilbert A A'Beckett. [Bradbury, Agnew, & Co., London]
