These matters may verie rightfullie denounce vnto all the world hir execrable abhominations, and well iustifie the iudgement she had, and the execution she was put to for the same. A thing yet (God wot) verie smallie shadowed, and lesse holpen by the verie trauell of the Dolphin, whose dignitie abroad foulie spotted in this point, that contrarie to the holie de|grée of a right christen prince (as he called himselfe) for maintenance of his quarels in warre would not reuerence to prophane his sacred estate, Christianissi|mus rex. as dealing in diuelish practises with misbeléeuers and witches. Which maladie he full sorilie salued (like one that to kill the strong sent of onions would cheaw a cloue of garlike) so a six and twentie yeares after, Tillet. This prelate at his death left a hundred and fiftéene crownes in gold, that vn|der colour of warres with the infidels he had fléesed from christen princes. Platina. he pact with pope Calixt the third, by whose mandat directed to his three delegats, the bishops of Paris, Reimes, and Constance, at the cathedrall church of Paris, in presence of Ione (the pusels mother) Iohn and Pe|ter hir brethren, the seuen and twentith daie of No|uember 1455, the validitie and goodnesse of the pro|cesse and sentence vpon hir was called in question, and in great solemnitie sit vpon.

Wherein the cause was so sincerelie canuassed a|mong them, that afterward, on the eight of Iulie 1456, a quite contrarie sentence was there declared: of effect, that this Ione (forsooth) was a damsell di|uine, no fault in the Dolphin for his counsell and wit|cherie practises with hir; the processe, iudgement, and condemnation against hir all wrong and iniurious. And for iustification and remembrance aswell of hir innocencie in life and death, as also of the sinceritie of their later sentence, a new crosse in that old mar|ket to be reared. In this tale of Tillets is she further likened to Debora, Iahell, and Iudith, and vnto Ro|mane Clelia compared by Polydor, that shames not somewhat also to carpe at hir iudgment, Li. 23. in vita H. 6. and much pi|tieth hir paine. But what puritie or regard of deuo|tion or conscience is in these writers trow yée, who make no consideration of hir heinous enormities, or else any difference betwéene one stirred vp by mercie diuine, or naturall loue, and a damnable sor|cerer suborned by satan? And thus much of this gen|tle Ione, and of hir good oratours that haue said so well for hir: now iudge as ye list.]

Compare 1577 edition: 1 After the bestowing of this Pusell in sort as yée haue heard, the siege still continued before Campi|egne, and the duke of Bedford sent to the duke of Burgognie lieng at the siege, the earle of Hunting|ton, and sir Iohn Robsert (two iollie gentlemen, of no lesse prudence to parle with the enimie, than puis|sance to incounter them) with a thousand archers (whose actiuitie, I warrant you, stood not then vpon the first triall) which dailie skirmished with them with|in, and made such bastiles & fortresses, that the towne had béene rendred into their hands, but that the duke of Burgognie departed from the siege to go into Brabant, to receiue the possession of that duchie, by the death of his cousin Philip the duke of that coun|trie, as then departed this world.
