'How many soldiers did the King give you,' asked the priest, 'when he gave you a command?' 'Between ten and twelve thousand men,' answered Joan. Then Beaupere questioned her regarding the relief of Orleans, and he was told by the Maid that she first went to the redoubt of Saint Loup by the bridge. 'Did you expect,' was the next question, 'that you would be able to raise the siege?' 'Yes,' she was certain, Joan answered, from a revelation which she had received, and of which she had told the King before making the expedition. 'At the time of the assault,' asked Beaupere, 'did you not tell your soldiers that you alone would receive all the arrows, bolts, and stones discharged by the cannon and culverins?' 'No,' she answered, 'there were over a hundred wounded; but,' she added, 'I said to my people, "Be assured that you will raise the siege."' 'Were you wounded?' asked the priest. 'I was wounded,' Joan answered, 'at the assault of the fortress on the bridge. I was struck and wounded by an arrow or a dart; but I received much comfort from Saint Catherine, and I recovered in less than fifteen days. I recovered, and in spite of the wound I did not give up riding or working.' 'Did you know beforehand that you would be wounded?' asked Beaupere. 'Yes,' was the answer; 'and I had told my King I should be wounded. My saints had told me of it.' 'In what manner were you wounded?' he asked. 'I was,' she answered, 'the first to raise a ladder against the fortress at the bridge. While raising the ladder I was struck by the bolt.' 'Why,' now asked the priest, 'did you not come to terms with the English captains at Jargeau?' 'The knights about me,' she answered, 'told the English that they could not have a truce of fifteen days, which they wanted; but that they and their horses must leave the place at once.' 'And what did you say?' 'I told them that if they left the place with their side arms (_petites cottes_) their lives would be spared. If not, that Jargeau would be stormed.' 'Had you then consulted your voices to know whether you should accord them that delay or not?' Joan did not remember. Here closed the fourth day's trial. The fifth day of the trial took place on the 1st of March. Fifty-eight judges were present. The opening proceedings were the same as on the former occasions, and Joan of Arc again professed her willingness to answer all questions put to her regarding her deeds as readily as if she were in the presence of the Pope of Rome himself; but, as formerly, she gave no promise of revealing what her voices had told her. Beaupere caught immediately at the opportunity of her having spoken of the Pope to lay a pitfall in her path: Which Pope did she believe the authentic one--he at Avignon or the one in Rome? 'Are there two?' she asked. This was an awkward question to those bishops and doctors of the faith who had for so long a time encouraged the schism in the Church.
