He died in 1236, leaving in manuscript a French translation in verse of the Miracles de Notre Dame, written originally in Latin by Hugh Farsi, Heranan, Guibert of Nogent, etc. Several copies of this MS. are found in the imperial library of Paris. Some of the accounts of Coinsi were published by Legrand d'Aussi in his Recueil des Fabliaux. See Hoefer, Nouv. Biog. Generale, s.v.; Biog. Universelle s.v.
