T eight o'clock on the morning of February 21, 1431, there was assembled in the Chapel Royal of the Castle of Rouen a court consisting of a bishop and forty-two assessors intent upon the prosecution of a case against a young girl, Joan of Arc. Historians agree that there was little disposition to acquit the accused and the records of the questions and answers indicate that all the subtilty of the learned Doctors of Law was directed to entrapping her into statements, or confessions, from which her guilt might be decreed
