The king's own charters and treaties for the year: the peace of Peronne with Baldwin IX in January 1200, the treaty of Le Goulet with John on 22 May 1200, the marriage settlement for Louis and Blanche, the privilege for the scholars of Paris, grants to towns, abbeys and Norman lords, and the first acts of the king's new acquisitions in the Vexin, Evreux and Berry. Delisle's calendar of 1856 lists every act with date and place and is free, while the full texts for 1200 are in vol. 2 of the Recueil (1943), which is not. Together they give the royal itinerary and show what Philip actually held and granted.
