[32] This, and the succeeding answers of Joan in this interview which
are authenticated by references to the _Proceedings of the
Rehabilitation_, are all, with the exception of two otherwise
designated, taken from that portion of vol. II between pp. 436 and 439.

[52] It is useless to cite the chroniclers severally on the subject of
this shameless and abominable examination. They are all agreed on the
fact.

[54] The interrogations and the replies thereto by Joan are here taken
in the main literally from _The Chronicle of the Maid_, a manuscript now
in the possession of the Institute at Paris, No. 245, cited by Quicherat
in his _Trial and Condemnation of Joan of Arc_, vol. IV, p. 209; also in
the _Proceedings of the Rehabilitation_, vol. III, pp. 204-206.
[55] _Proceedings of the Rehabilitation_, vol. II, p. 75. This
remarkable reply is quoted literally, like the rest of the inquisition.

English authors have been wont to quote with praise this virile letter
of the Maid.
