The Life of Joan of Arc, Vol. 1 and 2 (of 2)

CHAPTER XI
6/33

And if you will not, then hear the wondrous works[888] of the Maid who will shortly come upon you to your very great hurt.

And you, King of England, if you do not thus, I am a Chieftain of war,--and in whatsoever place in France I meet with your men, I will force them to depart willy nilly; and if they will not, then I will have them all slain.

I am sent hither by God, the King of Heaven, body for body, to drive them all out of the whole of France.

And if they obey, then will I show them mercy.

And think not in your heart that you will hold the kingdom of France [from] God, the King of Heaven, Son of the Blessed Mary, for it is King Charles, the true heir, who shall so hold it.
