The patriarch’s solemn confirmation of the pact concluded by his representatives with Venice in February of 1275 (doc. 1275_VR) came two and a half years after the treaty had been signed. The reason behind this delay in the patriarch’s confirmation cannot be deduced, but his preoccupation with the Lombard affairs and his family’s war against the Visconti was probably one of the reasons.

This confirmation of the pact was copied together with the text of the pact on July 12, 1277, by notary Peter and this copy, which does not survive, became the basis for all the other surviving copies, except, perhaps, the ms. hereby dubbed F. Namely, the copy in Pactum Ferrariae registers only half of the entire 1275 pact, and contains neither the notarial completiones nor Peter’s authentication formula, but it does feature the following addition:

"Item super eo quod vicedominus et Veneti conqueruntur, quod potestas Aquilegie non permittit eos extrahere de Aquilegia bladum, legumen, galinas, edos, capones vel aliud mercatum comestibile nisi prius dicti Veneti concordent cum eo, vobis sit respondendo, quod quicumque Venetus mihi monstrare poterit aliquid se dedisse eidem potestati huiusmodi occasione, paratus sum illud quod eis dederunt facere restitui in duplum, et volo ac precipio eidem potestati sub obtentu gracie domini patriarche ac penam quam ab eo exigere voluerit, quod dictos Venetos ad extrahendum bladum, legumina, galinas, edos aut aliud mercatum comestibile contra formam pactorum nullatenus impedire presumant."

Originally, I edited this addition together with Raymond’s 1277 promissio, interpreting it as the words that the Venetian ambassador aimed to put into the mouth of the patriarch’s envoy. However, it seems to me now more logical to conclude that the addition does not form part of the solemn promissio, but that it merely registers an assurance given by the patriarch’s envoy to the Venetians regarding their complaints about the actions of the delegated podestà of Aquileia who demanded bribes. This assurance could have been given at any time between 1277 and the mid-14th century when the Pacta Ferrariae were composed. In any case, my old conclusion remains: “this paragraph clearly demonstrates there were issues and irregularities in the quotidian practice related to the Venetian privileges guaranteed by the pacta.” (Banić, cited above, p. 17).

Raymond’s promise did not last long. Already in August of 1277 he sanctioned reprisals against Venice due to Count John III of Krk, whom he conceptualized as a “Venetian subject”, robbing a deputy of Conrad della Torre, the incumbent margrave of Istria (P.S. Leicht (ed.), Parlamento friulano, vol. 1/1 (Bologna 1917), doc. 15, pp. 18–19). In 1280 the Venetian ambassadors at the patriarch’s court lamented the overall disrespect of the pacts (doc. 1280_CD) and the two parties eventually went to war against each other in 1283 (cf. the Chronicle of Julian of Cividale, ed. Giovanni Tambara, RIS, ser. 2, 24/14 (Città di Castello 1905), p. 15).
