Jacques DeMolay's Dying Vow

As he was being bound to the stake in preparation for his execution, Jacques DeMolay, Last Grand Master of the Knights Templar, is said to have invoked a curse on his persecutors.  He vowed that King Phillip of France and Pope Clement would join him at the throne of God within a year to account for their sins.  Both Phillip and Clement died within a year after DeMolay's martyrdom.
