THE TRIAL FOR RELAPSE—SECOND SENTENCE—DEATH OF THE MAID
ON the following Sunday, which was Trinity Sunday, there arose a rumour1 that Jeanne had resumed man's apparel. The report spread rapidly from the castle down the narrow streets where lived the clerks in the shadow of the cathedral. Straightway notaries2 and assessors hastened to the tower which looked on the fields.
In the outer court of the castle they found some hundred men-at-arms, who welcomed them with threats and curses.[910] These fellows did not yet understand that the judges had conducted the trial so as to bring honour to old England and dishonour3 to the French. They did not realise what it meant when the Maid of the Armagnacs, who hitherto had obstinately4 persisted in her utterances5, was at length brought to confess her impostures. They did not see how great was the advantage to their country when it was published abroad throughout the world that Charles of Valois had been conducted to his coronation by a heretic. But no, the only idea these brutes6 were capable of grasping was the burning of[Pg ii.324] the girl prisoner who had struck terror into their hearts. The doctors and masters they treated as traitors7, false counsellors and Armagnacs.[911]
In the castle yard is Ma?tre André Marguerie, bachelor in decrees, archdeacon of Petit-Caux, King's Counsellor,[912] who is inquiring what has happened. He had displayed great assiduity in the trial. The Maid he held to be a crafty9 damsel.[913] Now again he desired to give an expert's judgment10 touching
