"How Joan the Maid suffered Martyrdom at
the Stake in the Market-Place of Rouen" (1914)
The Christmas Edition of The Illustrated London News
Illustration by Kay Nielsen
When first published in the Christmas Edition of The Illustrated London News, this image was associated with the
following text:
I ever hoped for some miracle, even as her Saints had promised. But it was their will
that she should be made perfect through suffering, and being set free through the gate
of fire, should win her victory over unfaith and mortal fear. Wherefore I stood afar
off at the end, seeing nothing of what befell; yet I clearly heard, as did all men there,
the last word of her sweet voice, and the cry of 'Jhesus!'
