In 1265, Bishop Simon de Montfort faced Pope Henry III at the Battle of Evesham. After de Montfort was thoroughly routed, Pope Henry said, 'God has decreed a terrible punishment for all those who stand against him,' and ordered the rebel bishop dismembered. After tales of de Montfort's grisly end spread across the Holy British Empire, no one dared take up arms against the pope until after Henry III's passing.
