HONORIUS IV. succeeded Martin IV. in the Papal chair in A.D. 1285. His name was Giacomo Savelli. Having the gout both in his hands and feet, he is said to have required the help of instruments in celebrating mass. He induced Philippe-le-Hardi to wage war against Pedro of Aragon, who held Charles II. of Sicily in prison, but without succeeding. He died A.D. 1287.
