“Have you any rings yourself?” [Addressing herself to Us, the Bishop:] “You have one of mine; give it back to me. The Burgundians have another of them. I pray you, if you have my ring, shew it to me.” “Who gave you the ring which the Burgundians [now] have?” “My father or my mother. I think the Names ‘Jhesus Maria’ are engraved on it. I do not know who had them written there; there is not, I should say, any stone in the ring; it was given to me at Domremy. It was my brother who gave me the other—the one you have.” [Continuing to address herself to Us, the Bishop:] “I charge you to give it to the Church. I never cured any one with any of my rings.” “Did Saint Catherine and Saint Margaret speak to you under the tree of which mention has been made?” “I know nothing of it.” “Did they speak to you at the spring, which is near the tree?” “Yes, I have heard them there; but what they said then, I do not know.” “What did they promise you, there or elsewhere?” “They have never promised me anything, except by God’s leave.” “But still, what promises have they made to you?” “That is not in your Case: not at all. Upon other subjects, they told me that my King would be reestablished in his Kingdom, whether his enemies willed it or no; they told me also that they would lead me to Paradise: I begged it of them, indeed.” “Did you have any other promise from them?” “There was another, but I will not tell it; that does not touch on the Case. In three months I will tell you the other promise.” “Have your Voices said that before three months you will be delivered from prison?” “That is not in your Case. Nevertheless I do not know when I shall be delivered. But those who wish to send me out of the world may well go before me.” “Has not your counsel told you that you will be delivered from your actual prison?” “Speak to me in three months, and I will answer. Moreover, ask of those present, upon oath, if this touches on the Trial.” We, the said Bishop, did then take the opinion of those present: and all considered that this did touch on the Trial. “I have already told you, you shall not know all. One day I must be delivered. But I wish to have leave to tell you the day: it is for this I ask delay.” “Have your Voices forbidden you to speak the truth?” “Do you want me to tell you what concerns the King of France? There are a number of things that do not touch on the Case. I know well that my King will regain the Kingdom of France. I know it as well as I know that you are before me, seated in judgment. I should die if this revelation did not comfort me every day.” “What have you done with your mandrake?”[45] “I never have had one. But I have heard that there is one near our home, though I have never seen it. I have heard it is a dangerous and evil thing to keep. I do not know for what it is [used].” “Where is this mandrake of which you have heard?”
