31.  John Brullot, another canon.  Besides these were seventeen others, named Caval, Columbel, Cormeilles, Crotoy, Duchemin, Dubesert, Garin, Gastinel, Ledoux, Leroy, Maguerie, Manzier, Morel, Morellet, Pinchon, Saulx, and Pasquier de Vaux, who became Bishop of Meaux, Evreux, and Lisieux.  In all, nine-and-twenty canons of Rouen.

After these came a list of mitred abbots, priors, and heads of religious houses:  Peter de Crique, Prior of Sigy; William Lebourg, Prior of the College of Saint Lo of Rouen; Peter Migiet, Prior of Longueville.

After these priors came eleven abbots:  Durement, Abbot of Fecamp, later Bishop of Coutances; Benel, Abbot of Courcelles; De Conti, Abbot of Sainte Catherine; Dacier, Abbot of Saint Corneille of Compiegne; Frique, Abbot of Bee; Jolivet, Abbot of Saint Michael’s Mount in Normandy; Labbe, Abbot of Saint George de Bocherville; Leroux, Abbot of Jumieges; Du Masle, Abbot of Saint Ouen; Moret, Abbot of Preaux; and Theroude, Abbot of Mortemer.

Besides these there were many doctors and assessors from the University of Paris; among the latter lot appears the name of an English priest, William Haiton, a secretary of Henry VI.  He and William Alnwick, Bishop of Norwich, Privy Seal to the English King, are the only two names belonging to the English clergy who took part in the trial.  The Cardinal of Winchester never once appeared during the proceedings, although he was, together with Cauchon, the prime mover in the business.  To complete the list of the other French clergy—­French only by birth and nationality indeed—­must be added the names of Chatillon, Archdeacon of Evreux; Erard, Canon of Langres, Laon, and Beauvais; Martin Ladvenu, a Dominican priest, one of the few who showed some humanity to the prisoner.  It was Ladvenu who heard her confession on the day of her execution, and who after her death testified to her saintliness.  Isambard de la Pierre, also a Dominican.  Although he voted for her death, de la Pierre showed signs of pity and compassion for his victim, and assisted her at her last moments.  Testimony to her pure character was given by him in the time of her rehabilitation.  Besides these were Emenyart, Fiexvet, Guerdon, Le Fevre, Delachambre, and Tiphanie, all of whom, with the exception of the last two, who were doctors of medicine, were members of the University.  As we have already stated, out of this vast crowd of ecclesiastics and a few laymen, only two Englishmen took part in the trial.  But the immediate guard of the prisoner was composed of English soldiers—­namely, of the following:  John Gris, an English knight, one of Henry’s bodyguard, who was in personal attendance on Joan of Arc; also John Berwoit (?) and William Talbot, subordinator to Gris.  These men commanded a set of soldiers called houspilleurs, placed in the cell of the prisoner day and night.  According to J. Bellow’s pocket dictionary, the term houspilleur is derived from the old French term houspiller—­Ang. ‘to worry.’  And these fellows certainly carried out that meaning of the word.
