“Was it told you whence the Angel had taken this crown?”
“It was brought from God; no goldsmith in the world would know how to fashion it so rich and fair.”
“Whence did he take it?”
“I refer me to God; and know nothing more of whence it was taken.”
“This crown, did it smell well and had it a good odour? did it glitter?”
“I do not remember about it; I will think it over.” [Remembering:] “Yes, it smelt good, and will smell good always, if it be well guarded, as it should be. It was in the form of a crown.”
“Did the Angel write you a letter?”
“No.”
“What sign had your King and the people who were with him and yourself, to believe that it was an Angel?”
“The King believed it by the teaching of the Clergy who were there, and by the sign of the crown.”
