But here and there I glimpsed compassion and distress in a face, and it was not always a French one. English soldiers feared Joan, but they admired her for her great deeds and her unconquerable spirit. In the morning Manchon and I went early, yet as we approached the vast fortress we found crowds of men already there and still others gathering.
Much against his will was Manchon obliged to act in the trial of the Maid, but he did not dare disobey the orders of those who formed the Council of Henry VI. All that he deposed has been made use of in the account of the heroine's life; so now we need do no more than refer to it.
And this was what had put her in such a temper the first time we saw her when she would have liked to put out her vexation on Manchon even, if she had dared! Rosy's mother felt very disappointed, but she saw it was better to say no more.
The same sound, however, returned; and, distinguishing something moving towards her, and in the next instant press beside her into the chair, she shrieked; but her fleeting senses were instantly recalled, on perceiving that it was Manchon who sat by her, and who now licked her hands affectionately.
Guillaume Manchon, the reporter, he who wrote superba responsio on his margin, and had written down every word of her long examination his occupation for three months, says that he "never wept so much for anything that happened to himself, and that for a whole month he could not recover his calm."
You needn't make faces at me," as Manchon, disturbed in his afternoon nap, blinked again and gave a sort of discontented mew.
Manchon, the clerk, makes a note upon his margin at these words, "Proudly answered" superbe responsum. This re-examination lasted for two long days, the 27th and 28th of March.
It consisted of "nos judices antedicti," but neither is the place of meeting named, nor the person who presided. Its sole testimonial is that the manuscript is in the same hand which has written the previous records: but whereas each page in that record was signed at the bottom by responsible notaries, Manchon and his colleagues, no name whatever certifies this.
