FOOTNOTES:
[956] It is advisable to read the trial in the original Latin and French, as the translations have often a Christian bias, e.g. 'the King of Heaven' being rendered as 'our Lord', and 'my Lord' as 'our Saviour'. This is not merely inaccurate but actually misleading.
[957] Compare Bessie Dunlop's more homely description of Thom Reid: 'An honest wele elderlie man.'
