206 THE INQUISITION the confession of suspects as the beginning of their con version. They therefore believed any means used for that purpose justified. They thought that an In quisitor had done something praiseworthy, when, even at the cost of cruel torments, he freed a heretic from his heresy. He was sorry indeed to be obliged to use force ; but that was not altogether his fault, but the fault of the laws which he had to enforce. Most men regard the auto de fe as the worst horror of the Inquisition. It is hardly ever pictured without burn ing flames and ferocious looking executioners. But an auto de fe did not necessarily call for either stake or executioner. It was simply a solemn "Sermon," which the heretics about to be condemned had to attend. 1 The death penalty was not always inflicted at these solemnities, which were intended to impress the imagination of the people. Seven out of eighteen autos de fe presided over by the famous Inquisitor, Bernard Gui, decreed no severer penalty than imprisonment. 1 On these "Sermons," cf. Tanon, op. cit., pp. 425-431. In France the heretics were not dressed in any particular costume or mitred as in Spain during the sixteenth century. There is but one mention of mitred heretics, viz. at the auto de fe against sorcerers at Arras in 1459. "Et illec furent mitres d une mitre ou estait peinct la figure du diable en telle maniere qu ils avaient confesse lui avoir fait hommage, et eulx a genoux peincts devant le diable; et illecq, par M. P. Le Broussart, Inquisiteur de la foy chretienne, preschiez publiquement, present tout le peuple; et y avoit tant de gens que ce estoit merveille, car de tous les villages d entour Arras et de dix ou douze lieues allenviron et plus y avait de gens." Fr6dericq, Corpus documentorum inquisitionis Neerlandica, vol. i, p. 353.
THE INQUISITION 207 We have seen, moreover, that in many places, even in Spain at a certain period, the number of heretics con demned to death was rather small. Even Lea, whom no one can accuse of any great partiality for the Church, is forced to state: "The stake consumed comparatively few victims." 1 In fact, imprisonment the severest penalties inflicted. and confiscation were as a rule 1 Op. cit., vol. i, p. 480. In making this statement, Lea of course means to exclude the witchcraft trials, which he treats in another part of his work. Cf. vol. iii, ch. vii, pp. 492-549.
