Beaupere

"Jean Beaupere entered alone into the prison of the said Jeanne by permission, and advertised her that she would straightway be taken to the scaffold to be addressed (/pour y etre preschee/), and that if she was a good Christian she would on that scaffold place all her acts and words under the jurisdiction of our Holy Mother, the Church, and specially of the ecclesiastical judges."

Beaupere then resumed his questions, but first asked her, perhaps with a momentary gleam of compassion and a sudden consciousness of the pallor and weariness of the young prisoner, how she did.

These words must have given the Magister Beaupere an admirable occasion for introducing one of the things charged against her for which there was actual proof -- her letter to the Comte d'Armagnac in respect to the Pope.

The questioner this day was Jean Beaupere (/Pulchri patris/, as he is called in the Latin), a theologian, Master of Arts, Canon of Paris and of Besancon, "one of the greatest props of the University of Paris," a man holding a number of important offices, and who afterwards appeared at the Council of Bale as the deputy of Normandy.

It was on the Thursday before Trinity Sunday that she put on the female dress, but it would seem that rumours on the subject of a relapse had begun to spread even before the Sunday on which that event happened: and Beaupere and Midi were sent by the Bishop to investigate.

Many of the questions which follow are so trivial and are so evidently instinct with evil meaning, that it seems a wrong to Beaupere to impute the whole of the interrogatory to him; other questions were evidently interposed by the excited assembly.

'How do you distinguish one from the other?' asked Beaupere.

It is plain that the gist of those questions made by Beaupere was to try and make Joan of Arc avow that her voices had given her evil counsel.

Beaupere then began again to question her regarding the voice.
