Petits oiseaux des bois. Marie is reading to herself a passage from

Divorced by a decree of the court. The trial was held in Viborg by a
Commission consisting of the bishop, the dean, and the civil governor
of the diocese. Many witnesses were called, and others flocked in
voluntarily. The records of the Commission are preserved in Dansk
Musæum, and from them Jacobsen has gleaned such details as Sören’s
attempt upon the life of Anne Trinderup and the incident of the
candle-making. Among the presents Marie gave Sören were, not only the
red cap, but one of green satin with gold lace and many other articles
of personal adornment, as well as household goods, besides an ivory
comb, a tooth-brush and ivory tooth-picks in a little case, the
“compliment-book” about which the maids tease Sören, and a book of
devotion called “A Godly Voice for each of the Twelve Months,” which
Jacobsen uses in the earlier part of the book as one of the volumes
conned by Marie in her girlhood.
