Go forward bravely. Fear nothing. Trust in God; all will be well.

Help yourself and God will help you

Alas! that my body, clean and whole, never been corrupted, today must be consumed and burnt to ashes!

I shall last a year, and but little longer: we must think to do good work in that year. Four things are laid upon me: to drive out the English; to bring you to be crowned and anointed at Reims; to rescue the Duke of Orléans from the hands of the English; and to raise the siege of Orléans.

The Maid and her soldiers will have the victory. Therefore the Maid is willing that you, Duke of Bedford, should not destroy yourself.
