“Was it never revealed to you that if you lost your virginity, you would lose your happiness, and that your Voices would come to you no more?” “That has never been revealed to me.”[85] “If you were married, do you think your Voices would come?” “I do not know; I wait on Our Lord.” “Do you think, and do you firmly believe, that your King did right in killing, or causing to be killed, my Lord the Duke of Burgundy?” “It was a great injury to the Kingdom of France; and, whatever there may have been between them, God sent me to the help of the King of France.” “As you have declared to my lord of Beauvais that you will reply to him and his Commissioners as you would before our most holy Lord the Pope, and as there are many questions which you will not answer, would you reply before the Pope more fully than before us?” “I have answered you all the truth that I know; and if I know anything which comes to my memory that I have left unsaid, I will tell it willingly.” “Does it not seem to you that you are bound to reply more fully to our Lord the Pope, the Vicar of God, on all that might be asked you touching the Faith and the matter of your conscience, than you should to us?” “Very well; let me be taken before him, and I will answer before him all I ought to answer.” “Of what material was one of your rings, on which was written ‘_Jhesus Maria_’?” “I do not exactly know; if it were of gold, it was not fine gold; I do not know if it were of gold or of brass; there were three crosses on it, and no other mark that I know of, except ‘_Jhesus Maria_.’” “Why was it that you generally looked at this ring when you were going into battle?” “For pleasure, and in honour of my father and mother; I had that ring in my hand and on my finger when I touched Saint Catherine as she appeared to me.” “What part of Saint Catherine?” “You will have no more about it.” “Did you ever kiss or embrace Saint Catherine or Saint Margaret?” “I have embraced them both.” “Did they smell good?” “It is well to know, they smelled good.” “In embracing them, did you feel any heat or anything else?” “I could not have embraced them without feeling and touching them.” “What part did you kiss—face or feet?” “It is more proper and respectful to kiss their feet.” “Did you not give them crowns?” “In their honour, I often put crowns on their images in the Churches. As to those who appeared to me, I never gave any to them that I can remember.” “When you placed crowns of flowers on the tree of which you spoke before, did you put them in honour of those who appeared to you?” “No.” “When these Saints came to you, did you do them no reverence? did you bend the knee before them? did you bow?” “Yes: and, so far as I could do them reverence, I did; I know it is they who are in the Kingdom of Paradise.” “Do you know nothing of those who came in the air with the fairies?”
