DUNGEON, FIRE, AND SWORD


Subtitled: The Knights Templar In the Crusades: by John J Robinson:
“The Templar was never to allow another person to see his naked body…the Templar was never to bathe his body. Although it may not have been intentional, the rule never to remove his sheepskin drawers and not to bathe for years on end in a blistering hot climate may have helped the Templar knight to adhere to his vow of chastity.”

(During the Albigensian Crusade)”One woman was arrested (as a heretic) because she was known to bathe every Saturday, a habit not in keeping with Christian custom.”
