It had said "yes" when he asked it if he would become pope, so he asked it if he would die before he had said mass in Jerusalem. | | | Otto led two unsuccessful expeditions to regain control of the city, and, on a third, in 1002, he died in his twenty-first year. | | | Hugh Capet died in 996, and Gerbert clashed with his successor, Robert II (996-1031), when Gerbert declared Robert's marriage to his cousin Bertha illegal. |
