 There are five versions of the speech recorded by people who may have been at the council (Baldric of Dol, Guibert of Nogent, Robert the Monk, and Fulcher of Chartres) or who went on crusade (Fulcher and the anonymous author of the Gesta Francorum), as well as other versions found in later historians (such as William of Malmesbury and William of Tyre).All of these versions were written after Jerusalem had been captured.Thus it is difficult to know what was actually said and what was recreated in the aftermath of the successful crusade.
