.
From 1152 to 1154 Nicholas was in Scandinavia as See also:legate, organizing the affairs of the new See also:Norwegian archbishopric of See also:Trondhjem, and making arrangements which resulted in the recognition of See also:Upsala as seat of the See also:Swedish See also:metropolitan in 1164
.
As a See also:compensation for territory thus withdrawn the Danish See also:archbishop of See also:Lund was made legate and perpetual See also:vicar and given the See also:title of See also:primate of See also:Denmark and See also:Sweden

He at once endeavoured to See also:compass the overthrow of See also:Arnold of See also:Brescia, the See also:leader of See also:anti-papal sentiment in Rome
.
Disorders ending with the See also:murder of a cardinal led See also:Adrian shortly before See also:Palm See also:Sunday 1155 to take the previously-unheard-of step of putting Rome under the See also:interdict

See also:Barbarossa, was instrumental in procuring his See also:execution

Adrian crowned the See also:emperor at St See also:- PETER

At the See also:diet of See also:Besancon in See also:October 1157, the legates presented to Barbarossa a See also:letter from Adrian which alluded to the beneficia conferred upon the emperor, and the See also:German See also:chancellor translated this beneficia in the feudal sense
.
In the See also:storm which ensued the legates were glad to See also:- ESCAPE (in mid. Eng. eschape or escape, from the O. Fr. eschapper, modern echapper, and escaper, low Lat. escapium, from ex, out of, and cappa, cape, cloak; cf. for the sense development the Gr. iichueoOat, literally to put off one's clothes, hence to sli
escape with their lives, and the incident at length closed with a letter from the pope, declaring that by benefccium he meant merely bonum factum

According to the elaborate investigation of Thatcher, the facts seem to be as follows
.
Henry asked for permission to invade and subjugate See also:Ireland, in See also:- ORDER
- ORDER (through Fr. ordre, for earlier ordene, from Lat. ordo, ordinis, rank, service, arrangement; the ultimate source is generally taken to be the root seen in Lat. oriri, rise, arise, begin; cf. " origin ")
- ORDER, HOLY
order to gain See also:absolute ownership of that isle
.
Unwilling to See also:- GRANT (from A.-Fr. graunter, O. Fr. greanter for creanter, popular Lat. creantare, for credentare, to entrust, Lat. credere, to believe, trust)
- GRANT, ANNE (1755-1838)
- GRANT, CHARLES (1746-1823)

- GRANT, ULYSSES SIMPSON (1822-1885)
grant a See also:request See also:counter to the papal claim (based on the forged Donation of See also:Constantine) to dominion over the islands of the sea, Adrian made Henry a conciliatory proposal, namely, that the See also:- KING
- KING (O. Eng. cyning, abbreviated into cyng, cing; cf. O. H. G. chun- kuning, chun- kunig, M.H.G. kiinic, kiinec, kiinc, Mod. Ger. Konig, O. Norse konungr, kongr, Swed. konung, kung)

- KING, THOMAS (1730–1805)
- KING, WILLIAM (1650-1729)
- KING, WILLIAM (1663–1712)
king should become hereditary feudal possessor of Ireland while recognizing the pope as overlord
.
This See also:compromise did not satisfy Henry, so the See also:matter dropped; Henry's subsequent title to Ireland rested on See also:conquest, not on papal concession,
and was therefore absolute
.
The much-discussed See also:bull Laudabiliter is, however, not genuine
