Again she was offered a woman's dress in which to hear mass; she refused it.
"As for a woman's dress, I will not take it yet, not until it be Our Lord's will. And if it should come to pass that I be taken to judgment and there divested of my clothes, I beg my lords of the Church the favour of a woman's smock and covering for my head. I would rather die than deny what Our Lord hath caused me to do. I believe firmly that Our Lord will not let it come to pass that I should be cast so low, and that soon I shall have help from God, and that by a miracle."
Thereafter the following questions were put to her: "Do you not believe to-day that fairies are evil spirits?"
"I do not know."
"Do you know whether Saint Catherine and Saint Margaret hate the English?"
"They love what Our Lord loves and hate what God hates."
"Does God hate the English?"
"Touching the love or hatred of God for the English and what he will do for their souls I know nothing. But I do know that they will all be driven out of France, save those who die there, and that God will send victory to the French and defeat to the English."
"Was God on the side of the English when they prospered in France?"
"I know not whether God hated the French. But I believe that he permitted them to be beaten for their sins, if they were in sin."[791]
