Having some years ago, during a pilgrimage to the Holy City of
Jerusalem, gained admission to the courts of the ancient Temple of
the Knights Templars, which still exists on Mount Moriah in a
perfect state of preservation as a Mussulman Mosque, and having
visited many of the ruined fortresses and castles of the ancient
order of the Temple, whose shattered walls are still to be seen at
intervals in Palestine and in Syria, from Gaza to Antioch, and from
the mountains of the Dead Sea to the shores of the Mediterranean, I
naturally became greatly interested in the history of the order,
and in the numerous remains and memorials of the Knights Templars
still to be met with in various stages of decay and ruin in almost
every part of Europe. The recent restoration of the Temple Church
at London, the most beautiful and the best preserved of all the
ancient ecclesiastical edifices of the western provinces of the
Temple, first suggested to me the idea of writing a short
historical account of the varied fortunes of that great religious
and military fraternity of knights and monks by whom it was
erected, and of their dark and terrible end.

Born during the first fervour of the Crusaders, the Templars were
flattered and aggrandized as long as their great military power and
religious fanaticism could be made available for the support of the
Eastern church and the retention of the Holy Land; but when the
crescent had ultimately triumphed over the cross, and the religious
and military enthusiasm of Christendom had died away, they
encountered the basest ingratitude in return for the services they
had rendered to the Christian faith, and were plundered,
persecuted, and condemned to a cruel death by those who ought in
justice to have been their defenders and supporters. The memory of
these holy warriors is embalmed in all our recollections of the
wars of the cross; they were the bulwarks of the Latin kingdom of
Jerusalem during the short period of its existence, and were the
last band of Europe's host that contended for the possession of
Palestine. To the vows of the monk and the austere life of the
convent, they added the discipline of the camp, and the stern
duties of the military life, joining the fine vocation of the sword
and lance with the holy zeal and body-bending toil of a poor
brotherhood. The vulgar notion that they were as wicked as they
were fearless and brave, has not yet been entirely exploded; but it
is hoped that the copious account of the proceedings against the
order in this country given in the ensuing volume, will dispel many
unfounded prejudices still entertained against the fraternity, and
excite emotions of admiration for their constancy and courage, and
of pity for their unmerited and cruel fate.
