From that day, during the entire further journey of the Rostovs, at all rests and overnight stays, Natasha did not leave the wounded Bolkonsky, and the doctor had to admit that he did not expect from the girl either such firmness or such skill in caring for the wounded.
No matter how terrible the thought seemed to the countess that Prince Andrei could (very likely, according to the doctor) die during the journey in the arms of her daughter, she could not resist Natasha. Although, as a result of the now established rapprochement between the wounded Prince Andrei and Natasha, it occurred to him that in the event of recovery, the previous relationship of the bride and groom would be resumed, no one, least of all Natasha and Prince Andrei, spoke about this: the unresolved, hanging question of life or death is not only over Bolkonsky, but over Russia, overshadowed all other assumptions.
Pierre woke up late on September 3rd. His head ached, the dress in which he slept without undressing weighed down his body, and in his soul there was a vague consciousness of something shameful that had been committed the day before; This was a shameful conversation yesterday with Captain Rambal.
The clock showed eleven, but it seemed especially cloudy outside. Pierre stood up, rubbed his eyes and, seeing a pistol with a cut-out stock, which Gerasim put back on desk, Pierre remembered where he was and what was ahead of him that very day.
“Am I too late? - thought Pierre. “No, he will probably make his entry into Moscow no earlier than twelve.” Pierre did not allow himself to think about what lay ahead of him, but was in a hurry to act as quickly as possible.
Having straightened his dress, Pierre took the pistol in his hands and was about to leave. But then for the first time the thought came to him about how, not in his hand, he could carry this weapon down the street. Even under a wide caftan it was difficult to hide a large pistol. It could not be placed inconspicuously either behind a belt or under an armpit. In addition, the pistol was unloaded, and Pierre did not have time to load it. “It’s all the same, it’s a dagger,” Pierre said to himself, although more than once, while discussing the fulfillment of his intention, he decided with himself that main mistake student in 1809 was that he wanted to kill Napoleon with a dagger. But, as if Pierre’s main goal was not to carry out his intended task, but to show himself that he was not renouncing his intention and was doing everything to fulfill it, Pierre hastily took the one he had bought from the Sukharev Tower along with the pistol a blunt, jagged dagger in a green sheath and hid it under his vest.
Having belted his caftan and pulled down his hat, Pierre, trying not to make noise and not to meet the captain, walked along the corridor and went out into the street.
The fire that he had looked at so indifferently the night before had grown significantly overnight. Moscow was already burning from different sides. Karetny Ryad, Zamoskvorechye, Gostiny Dvor, Povarskaya, barges on the Moscow River and the wood market near the Dorogomilovsky Bridge were burning at the same time.
Pierre's path lay through the alleys to Povarskaya and from there to the Arbat, to St. Nicholas the Apparition, with whom he had long ago determined in his imagination the place where his deed should be carried out. Most of the houses had locked gates and shutters. The streets and alleys were deserted. The air smelled of burning and smoke. Occasionally we encountered Russians with anxiously timid faces and Frenchmen with a non-urban, camp look, walking along the middle of the streets. Both of them looked at Pierre in surprise. In addition to his great height and thickness, in addition to the strange, gloomily concentrated and suffering expression on his face and entire figure, the Russians looked closely at Pierre because they did not understand what class this man could belong to. The French followed him with their eyes in surprise, especially because Pierre, disgusted by all the other Russians who looked at the French in fear or curiosity, did not pay any attention to them. At the gate of one house, three Frenchmen, who were explaining something to Russian people who did not understand them, stopped Pierre, asking if he knew French?
Pierre shook his head negatively and moved on. In another alley, a sentry standing by a green box shouted at him, and only at the repeated menacing scream and the sound of a gun taken by the sentry on his hand did Pierre realize that he had to go around to the other side of the street. He heard and saw nothing around him. He, like something terrible and alien to him, carried his intention with haste and horror, afraid - taught by the experience of the previous night - to somehow lose it. But Pierre was not destined to convey his mood intact to the place where he was heading. In addition, even if he had not been delayed by anything on the way, his intention could not have been fulfilled simply because Napoleon had traveled more than four hours earlier from the Dorogomilovsky suburb through the Arbat to the Kremlin and was now sitting in the tsar’s office in the gloomiest mood the Kremlin Palace and gave detailed, detailed orders about the measures that immediately had to be taken to extinguish the fire, prevent looting and calm the residents. But Pierre did not know this; He, completely absorbed in what was to come, suffered, as people suffer who stubbornly undertake an impossible task - not because of the difficulties, but because the task is unusual for their nature; he was tormented by the fear that he would weaken at the decisive moment and, as a result, lose self-respect.
Although he did not see or hear anything around him, he instinctively knew the way and did not make the mistake of taking the side streets that led him to Povarskaya.
As Pierre approached Povarskaya, the smoke became stronger and stronger, and there was even heat from the fire. Occasionally tongues of fire rose from behind the roofs of houses. There were more people on the streets, and these people were more anxious. But Pierre, although he felt that something extraordinary was happening around him, was not aware that he was approaching a fire. Walking along a path that ran through a large undeveloped place, adjacent on one side to Povarskaya, on the other to the gardens of Prince Gruzinsky’s house, Pierre suddenly heard the desperate cry of a woman next to him. He stopped, as if awakening from sleep, and raised his head.
To the side of the path, on the dry, dusty grass, household belongings were piled up: feather beds, a samovar, icons and chests. On the ground next to the chests sat an elderly, thin woman, with long protruding upper teeth, dressed in a black cloak and cap. This woman, rocking and saying something, cried sorely. Two girls, from ten to twelve years old, dressed in dirty short dresses and cloaks, looked at their mother with an expression of bewilderment on their pale, frightened faces. A smaller boy, about seven years old, wearing a suit and someone else’s huge cap, was crying in the arms of an old woman nanny. A barefoot, dirty girl sat on a chest and, having loosened her whitish braid, pulled back her singed hair, sniffing it. The husband, a short, stooped man in a uniform, with wheel-shaped sideburns and smooth temples visible from under a straight-on cap, with a motionless face, pushed apart the chests, placed one on top of the other, and pulled out some clothes from under them.
The woman almost threw herself at Pierre's feet when she saw him.
“Dear fathers, Orthodox Christians, save, help, my dear!.. someone help,” she said through sobs. - A girl!.. A daughter!.. They left my youngest daughter!.. She burned down! Oh oh oh! That's why I cherish you... Oh oh oh!
“That’s enough, Marya Nikolaevna,” the husband addressed his wife in a quiet voice, obviously only to justify himself to a stranger. - My sister must have taken it away, otherwise where else would I be? - he added.
- Idol! The villain! – the woman screamed angrily, suddenly stopping crying. “You have no heart, you don’t feel sorry for your brainchild.” Someone else would have pulled it out of the fire. And this is an idol, not a man, not a father. “You are a noble man,” the woman quickly turned to Pierre, sobbing. “It caught fire nearby,” he said to us. The girl screamed: it’s burning! They rushed to collect. They jumped out in what they were wearing... That's what they captured... God's blessing and a dowry bed, otherwise everything was lost. Grab the children, Katechka is gone. Oh my God! Ooo! – and again she began to sob. - My dear child, it burned! burned!
- Where, where did she stay? - said Pierre. From the expression on his animated face, his woman realized that this man could help her.
- Father! Father! – she screamed, grabbing his legs. “Benefactor, at least calm my heart... Aniska, go, you vile one, see her off,” she shouted at the girl, angrily opening her mouth and with this movement showing off her long teeth even more.
“Show me off, show me off, I’ll... I’ll... I’ll do it,” Pierre said hastily in a breathless voice.
The dirty girl came out from behind the chest, tidied up her braid and, sighing, walked forward along the path with her blunt bare feet. Pierre seemed to suddenly come to life after a severe faint. He raised his head higher, his eyes lit up with the sparkle of life, and he quickly followed the girl, overtook her and went out onto Povarskaya. The entire street was covered in a cloud of black smoke. Tongues of flame burst out here and there from this cloud. A large crowd of people crowded in front of the fire. A French general stood in the middle of the street and said something to those around him. Pierre, accompanied by the girl, approached the place where the general stood; but French soldiers stopped him.
“On ne passe pas, [They don’t pass here,”] a voice shouted to him.
- Here, uncle! - said the girl. - We'll go through the Nikulins along the alley.
Pierre turned back and walked, occasionally jumping up to keep up with her. The girl ran across the street, turned left into an alley and, after passing three houses, turned right into the gate.
“Right here now,” said the girl, and, running through the yard, she opened the gate in the plank fence and, stopping, pointed to Pierre a small wooden outbuilding that burned brightly and hotly. One side of it collapsed, the other was burning, and the flames were blazing brightly from under the window openings and from under the roof.
When Pierre entered the gate, he was overcome with heat, and he involuntarily stopped.
– Which, which is your house? - he asked.
- Oh oh oh! - the girl howled, pointing to the outbuilding. “He’s the one, she’s the one who was our very own.” You burned, my treasure, Katechka, my beloved young lady, oh, oh! - Aniska howled at the sight of the fire, feeling the need to express her feelings.
Pierre leaned towards the outbuilding, but the heat was so strong that he involuntarily described an arc around the outbuilding and found himself next to a large house, which was still burning only on one side of the roof and around which a crowd of French were swarming. Pierre at first did not understand what these French were doing, carrying something; but, seeing in front of him a Frenchman who was beating a peasant with a blunt cleaver, taking away his fox fur coat, Pierre vaguely understood that they were robbing here, but he had no time to dwell on this thought.
The sound of the crackling and roar of collapsing walls and ceilings, the whistle and hiss of flames and the animated cries of the people, the sight of wavering, now scowling thick black, now soaring lightening clouds of smoke with sparkles and sometimes solid, sheaf-shaped, red, sometimes scaly golden flame moving along the walls , the sensation of heat and smoke and the speed of movement produced on Pierre their usual stimulating effect of fires. This effect was especially strong on Pierre, because Pierre suddenly, at the sight of this fire, felt freed from the thoughts that were weighing him down. He felt young, cheerful, agile and determined. He ran around the outbuilding from the side of the house and was about to run to the part of it that was still standing, when a cry of several voices was heard above his head, followed by the cracking and ringing of something heavy that fell next to him.
Pierre looked around and saw the French in the windows of the house, who had thrown out a chest of drawers filled with some kind of metal things. Other French soldiers below approached the box.
“Eh bien, qu"est ce qu"il veut celui la, [This one still needs something," one of the French shouted at Pierre.
- Un enfant dans cette maison. N"avez vous pas vu un enfant? [A child in this house. Have you seen the child?] - said Pierre.
– Tiens, qu"est ce qu"il chante celui la? Va te promener, [What else is this interpreting? “Get to hell,” voices were heard, and one of the soldiers, apparently afraid that Pierre would take it into his head to take away the silver and bronze that were in the box, advanced threateningly towards him.
- Un enfant? - the Frenchman shouted from above. - J"ai entendu piailler quelque chose au jardin. Peut etre c"est sou moutard au bonhomme. Faut etre humain, voyez vous... [Child? I heard something squeaking in the garden. Maybe it's his child. Well, it is necessary according to humanity. We all people…]
– Ou est il? Ou est il? [Where is he? Where is he?] asked Pierre.
- Par ici! Par ici! [Here, here!] - the Frenchman shouted to him from the window, pointing to the garden that was behind the house. – Attendez, je vais descendre. [Wait, I'll get off now.]
And indeed, a minute later a Frenchman, a black-eyed fellow with some kind of spot on his cheek, in only his shirt, jumped out of the window of the lower floor and, slapping Pierre on the shoulder, ran with him into the garden.
“Depechez vous, vous autres,” he shouted to his comrades, “commence a faire chaud.” [Hey, you're more lively, it's starting to get hot.]
Running out behind the house onto a sand-strewn path, the Frenchman pulled Pierre's hand and pointed him towards the circle. Under the bench lay a three-year-old girl in a pink dress.
– Voila votre moutard. “Ah, une petite, tant mieux,” said the Frenchman. - Au revoir, mon gros. Faut être humaine. Nous sommes tous mortels, voyez vous, [Here is your child. Ah, girl, so much the better. Goodbye, fat man. Well, it is necessary according to humanity. All people,] - and the Frenchman with a spot on his cheek ran back to his comrades.
Pierre, gasping for joy, ran up to the girl and wanted to take her in his arms. But, seeing a stranger, the scrofulous, unpleasant-looking, scrofulous, mother-like girl screamed and started running. Pierre, however, grabbed her and picked her up; she screamed in a desperately angry voice and with her small hands began to tear Pierre’s hands away from her and bite them with her snotty mouth. Pierre was overcome by a feeling of horror and disgust, similar to the one he experienced when touching some small animal. But he made an effort over himself so as not to abandon the child, and ran with him back to big house. But it was no longer possible to go back the same way; the girl Aniska was no longer there, and Pierre, with a feeling of pity and disgust, hugging the painfully sobbing and wet girl as tenderly as possible, ran through the garden to look for another way out.
When Pierre, having run around courtyards and alleys, came back with his burden to Gruzinsky’s garden, on the corner of Povarskaya, at first he did not recognize the place from which he had gone to fetch the child: it was so cluttered with people and belongings pulled out of houses. In addition to Russian families with their goods, fleeing here from the fire, there were also several French soldiers in various attire. Pierre did not pay attention to them. He was in a hurry to find the official’s family in order to give his daughter to his mother and go again to save someone else. It seemed to Pierre that he had a lot more to do and quickly. Inflamed from the heat and running around, Pierre at that moment felt even more strongly than before that feeling of youth, revival and determination that overwhelmed him as he ran to save the child. The girl now became quiet and, holding Pierre’s caftan with her hands, sat on his hand and, like a wild animal, looked around her. Pierre occasionally glanced at her and smiled slightly. It seemed to him that he saw something touchingly innocent and angelic in this frightened and painful face.
Neither the official nor his wife were in their former place. Pierre walked quickly among the people, looking at the different faces that came his way. Involuntarily he noticed a Georgian or Armenian family, consisting of a handsome, very old man with an oriental face, dressed in a new covered sheepskin coat and new boots, an old woman of the same type and a young woman. This very young woman seemed to Pierre the perfection of oriental beauty, with her sharp, arched black eyebrows and a long, unusually tenderly ruddy and beautiful face without any expression. Among the scattered belongings, in the crowd in the square, she, in her rich satin cloak and a bright purple scarf covering her head, resembled a delicate greenhouse plant thrown out into the snow. She sat on a bundle somewhat behind the old woman and motionlessly looked at the ground with her large black elongated eyes with long eyelashes. Apparently, she knew her beauty and was afraid for it. This face struck Pierre, and in his haste, walking along the fence, he looked back at her several times. Having reached the fence and still not finding those he needed, Pierre stopped, looking around.
The figure of Pierre with a child in his arms was now even more remarkable than before, and several Russian men and women gathered around him.
– Or lost someone, dear man? Are you one of the nobles yourself, or what? Whose child is it? - they asked him.
Today, May 30, in Europe everyone who loves those around them celebrates Neighbors Day, and in Russia welders celebrate their professional holiday - Welder Day.
All people and animals, as well as countries and planets, have neighbors. We must not forget that we all live together. A new international holiday, European Neighbors Day, was founded in Paris in 2000 and has since been celebrated every year on the last Friday of May.
The founder of this holiday was the creator of the Paris d’Amis association in the 17th arrondissement of Paris, the Frenchman Atanaz Perifan, who in 1990, together with friends, proposed this holiday in order to mobilize people to combat isolation and strengthen social ties. For neighbors who find themselves in difficult life situation members of the Paris d’Amis association collected funds and necessary things, helped them find work, etc.
The association held the first “Neighbors Day” holiday for residents of its 17th district back in 1999. More than 10 thousand people living in 800 houses took part in this holiday. The following year, this holiday became national, and since 2003 it has become a European holiday. Today, this holiday has more than 1,200 partners in more than 30 participating countries.
You can celebrate Neighbors Day very simply - just notify all your neighbors in time, gather somewhere convenient for everyone - in the house or on the street, in the garden at one large table. Let each neighbor bring home-cooked treats and a good mood to this table.
On the last Friday of May, on the eve of summer, all welders in Russia celebrate their professional holiday. It is at this time that welding work is most intensive. The date of this holiday has not been officially approved, but it has been celebrated every year since the early 90s of the 20th century. And the welding profession appeared much earlier. The year 1802 is considered to be the time of its origin. It was then that the effect was discovered electric arc Russian scientist Vasily Petrov. Today, not a single branch of production can do without welding.
Today, all over the world, representatives of the better half of humanity can celebrate their holiday Day of Feminism, but for children and adults whose noses are colored yellow by spring dandelions, they celebrate Dandelion Yellow Noses Day.
All over the world today, the best part of humanity without men is celebrating feminism day.
Women began to fight for their civil rights back in the 18th century, but already in the 60s of the last century, women managed to achieve long-awaited equality in almost all matters.
Women today can easily walk around the city in trousers and even mini shorts, build their own business, career, vote and run for office.
It would just be good not to forget that everything is good in moderation. Sometimes you need to shift all the difficult matters onto the broad shoulders of men and just be a gentle and fragile woman.
All the lawns are like freckles - like dandelions in bloom.
I’ll go out to the edge of the forest in the morning and weave a wreath out of them!
Even your nose will turn yellow from a terry bouquet!
In a day the summer of dandelion dreams will come!
On this day, Orthodox Christians honor the memory of Saint Eudoxia.
It was on this day that it was customary for the peasants to hill up potatoes.

The patroness of all military men, Joan of Arc, was canonized by Pope Benedict in 1920. However, many remember the heroine and admire her exploits for several centuries.
She was born in 1412 in a small French village. At the age of twelve, Jeanne had her first revelation. As the girl herself claimed, she heard the voices of great saints. They told her about the special mission that Jeanne had to fulfill. The voice of Archangel Michael said that she was chosen and would someday become the savior of France. At that time, the country was not in the best position: the land was occupied by the British, and the French army was in an extremely critical condition, which did not allow it to repel the enemies.
The saints communicated with Joan for several years. When the girl grew up and became stronger, they began to encourage her to take active action. Having difficulty moving from the occupied territory to the allies, Jeanne found the Dauphin Charles and told him about the voices and the great mission. And at the age of seventeen, the girl led the army, inspiring the French people to fight the invaders. Her army, showing great courage, was able to get into the besieged Orleans and in 1429 forced the British to lift the siege of the city. For this feat, Jeanne began to be called the Maid of Orleans. Thanks to d'Arc's successive victories, the Dauphin Charles was able to be crowned in 1429.
Jeanne's popularity grew, and the aristocratic elite, frightened by the wide scope of the war, contributed to the girl's removal from command of the army. Soon, while attempting to escape from besieged Compiegne, as a result of the betrayal of her friends, the warrior was captured by the Burgundians, after which she was handed over to the British. The church court accused Jeanne of witchcraft and heresy and ordered her to be burned at the stake. The execution of the “witch” took place on May 30, 1431. D'Arc's remains were thrown into the Seine. A quarter of a century later, a new trial rehabilitated Jeanne and recognized her as the beloved “daughter” of France.
On this day, the church honors the memory of Saint Eudokia, and today it was customary for peasants in Rus' to work on potatoes: somewhere to weed, and somewhere to pester potatoes that had not yet broken through the ground. There were also special signs for Evdokia. For example, it was believed that today is a reflection of the next three months, clear weather promised heat, and rainy weather indicated a damp and humid summer.
On May 30, another saint named Andronicus is venerated - or Ondron, as he was called by the people. According to legend, they prayed to Andronik so that there would be no droughts. “Ondron, open the gates of heaven and let the rain fall on the grain that lay in the damp earth,” this phrase could often be heard from old people on this day. And to consolidate the prayer, people performed a special ritual: they went out into the field, bowed to all four cardinal directions in turn. Only men over 33 years of age were allowed to perform such an action.
May 30, 1808– Incorporation of the Grand Duchy of Tuscany (with preservation of autonomy) into the French Empire
On the initiative of Napoleon, the Tuscan throne was taken by his sister Eliza. Possessing intelligence and ambition, the lady masterfully coped with the role of ruler assigned to her. Quite quickly she won the respect and love of her subjects. Eliza did a lot for the benefit of her territory. During her reign, all the swamps were dried up, a monopoly on tuna fishing was introduced, alum deposits were developed, the production of fabric products (mainly velvet and silk) was improved, theaters, libraries, educational establishments, hospitals and hostels. However, the ruler’s highest achievement was that she was able to revive the decaying quarries of Carrara marble, which subsequently provided the whole of Europe with fireplaces, clocks, altars, etc.
May 30, 1896– During the coronation of Nicholas II, a great stampede occurred on Khodynka Field in Moscow, as a result of which more than 1,500 people died
In honor of the coronation of Nicholas, they were installed festivities with free food, gifts, wine and other entertainment. In connection with this event, an unimaginable number of people gathered on Khodynka. Everyone dreamed of receiving the promised gift - of snatching their own piece of “happiness”. And although these were small gifts in the form of a mug and a bright cotton scarf, this did not stop the crowd. A crowd of millions rushed to the pavilion with gifts, shouting “They’re giving” and “Hurry up, take it apart, otherwise there won’t be enough.” It’s not hard to guess what all this led to: in the unbearable crush, about 1,500 people died and about the same number were seriously injured.
Acetylsalicylic acid, or aspirin in simple terms, was synthesized in 1853 by the outstanding scientist Karl Gerhardt. And only after so many years, aspirin was brought to perfection, purified from foreign impurities so that it could be used in therapy. Initially, the drug was sold only in Germany and strictly according to the prescription of the attending physician.
May 30, 1999– A stampede occurred in the underground passage of the Nemiga metro station (Minsk), which claimed the lives of 54 young people
On this day, about two thousand people (mostly from 14 to 20 years old) were returning from a concert, which was dedicated to the anniversary of Radio Mir. Hiding from the surging rain, the crowd rushed to the nearest metro station. The 100-meter underground passage, not designed for such a huge number of people, turned out to be completely clogged, and people, despite this, continued to arrive. Police officers tried to block the flow, but the crowd, hot and frightened by the hurricane, continued to press. The people in front were subjected to a brutal crush. Many lost consciousness and were subsequently trampled. Police officers who tried to help people were also crushed.

If a person was born on May 30, then he will have the ability to spell rain
A cold day is a sign that there will be hail in the summer
Apple trees, lilacs and rowan trees are in bloom on May 30 - there will be a good bite, and you can go fishing
They said that by the day of May 30 you can judge what the summer will be like. As a rule, a fairly strong wind blows towards Evdokia. It was believed that by May 30 a large number of snakes appeared, and they tried to be careful when going into forests or fields. They began to hill up the potatoes.
IN Orthodox Church On May 30, they also revered Saint Ondron, who, according to popular beliefs, is the guardian of the heavenly gates, and it was to him that they tried to pray for rain. They asked Ondron to open the gates and release precipitation so that life-giving moisture poured onto the fields and saved people from drought.
Interestingly, precipitation on May 30 could have been caused in other ways, using various conspiracies. So, a peasant who turned 33 years old had to come to the field, bow to all 4 cardinal directions, and then he was supposed to stick a special hewn aspen branch into the ground.
The peasants continued to work in the fields and tried to finish all their work in the evenings, since before warm weather arrived summer days It was not recommended to go to various gatherings.
As before, on May 30, legends about mermaids were told, because just now the water lilies were in bloom, cutting which was considered a grave sin.
There was a belief according to which mermaids danced in circles at night and turned into water lilies during the day. If you reach out and pick a water lily, nothing bad will happen, but it is extremely dangerous to cut a flower with a knife or other object, since blood may drip from the stem, and the mermaids will learn about the death of their sister, after which they will drag the person to the bottom or will appear in his dreams .
The patroness of all military men, Joan of Arc, was canonized by Pope Benedict in 1920. However, many remember the heroine and admire her exploits for several centuries.
She was born in 1412 in a small French village. At the age of twelve, Jeanne had her first revelation. As the girl herself claimed, she heard the voices of great saints. They told her about the special mission that Jeanne had to fulfill.
The voice of Archangel Michael said that she was chosen and would someday become the savior of France. At that time, the country was not in the best position: the land was occupied by the British, and the French army was in an extremely critical condition, which did not allow it to repel the enemies.
The saints communicated with Joan for several years. When the girl grew up and became stronger, they began to encourage her to take active action. Having difficulty moving from the occupied territory to the allies, Jeanne found the Dauphin Charles and told him about the voices and the great mission.
And at the age of seventeen, the girl led the army, inspiring the French people to fight the invaders. Her army, showing great courage, was able to get into the besieged Orleans and in 1429 forced the British to lift the siege of the city.
For this feat, Jeanne began to be called the Maid of Orleans. Thanks to d'Arc's successive victories, the Dauphin Charles was able to be crowned in 1429.
Jeanne's popularity grew, and the aristocratic elite, frightened by the wide scope of the war, contributed to the girl's removal from command of the army. Soon, while attempting to escape from besieged Compiegne, as a result of the betrayal of her friends, the warrior was captured by the Burgundians, after which she was handed over to the British.
The church court accused Jeanne of witchcraft and heresy and ordered her to be burned at the stake. The execution of the “witch” took place on May 30, 1431. D'Arc's remains were thrown into the Seine. A quarter of a century later, a new trial rehabilitated Jeanne and recognized her as the beloved “daughter” of France.
