OF GERMANY, son of the preceding, and ruler from 973 to 983, deserves no special notice at our hand. He was largely engaged in suppressing sedition at Rome, and in settling the interminable strife of the Italian princes. He was intent in the latter part of his reign in collecting a large army against the Saracens, whom he wished to expel from Sicily; but he died before the plan had reached execution. See Giesebrecht, Jahrbucher des deutschen Reichs (Berlin, 1840).
