glory

For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of glorying?
Qui est, en effet, notre espérance, ou notre joie, ou notre couronne de gloire ?
It was they who, whether glorying in the pomp and pageantry of a kingship as yet scarcely restricted by constitutional limitations, or entrenched within the strongholds of a seemingly inviolable ecclesiastical power, assumed ultimate responsibility for any wrongs inflicted by those whose immediate destinies they controlled.
C'étaient eux qui, se glorifiant dans le faste et l'apparat d'une royauté rarement peu limitée constitutionnellement, ou retranchés dans les forteresses d'un pouvoir ecclésiastique apparemment inviolable, assumaient la responsabilité finale de tout dommage infligé par ceux dont ils contrôlaient la destinée immédiate.
