Robert contributed to the restoration of Henry King of France tohis throne, and received from the gratitude of that monarch, the Vexin, asan additional to his patrimonial domains. In the 8th year of his reign,curiosity or devotn induced him to undertake a pilgrimage to the Holy Land, where the fatiges of the journey and the heat of the climate so impaired his consitution he died on his way home. Some sources call him Robert I the Magnificent!
