Excerpt from La Cit??? de Li???ge au Moyen-Age Ceux qui avaient le plus ??? craindre d'un tel prince, ce n'???taient pas les bourgeois de Li???ge, c'???taient surtout ces f???odaux dont, depuis dix - huit ans, les querelles fratricides d???solaient le pays. Leur outre cuidance, leur indiscipline, leur perp???tuel recours aux armes, leur affectation d'ignorer le pouvoir pacificateur de l'???v???que, tout-devait l'irriter contre eux. Sans respect pour les vieilles traditions qui leur donnaient le droit de guerre priv???e, il voyait en eux des perturbateurs insolents, qu'il lui appartenait de ch???tier en vertu de son haut domaine. ???tant le souverain justicier du pays, il ne voulait pas atten dre, lorsqu'il se produisait une infraction ??? l'ordre public, qu'il f???t saisi par la plainte des int???ress???s, conform???ment ??? la coutume barbare. Il revendiquait le droit de poursuivre d'office. Et, apr???s que le d???lit avait ???t??? constat??? ??? la suite d'une enqu???te, d'in iger un ch???timent proportionn??? ??? la faute. Cette pr???ten tion n'???tait pas nouvelle nous avons vu Henri de Gueldre essayer vainement de la faire pr???valoir en 1253 Mais, depuis lors, les id???es avaient march??? et, les l???gistes aidant, le droit dessinait la courbe d'une ???volution bienfaisante. En frappant, au nom de la patrie, les hobereaux turbulents retranch???s derri???re la Loi Charlemagne, le prince pouvait se dire qu'il faisait oeuvre de progr???s et de civilisation.
