Placing a strong guard round it , so as to prevent them from leaving Paris , the mob then compelled all the nobles and even the prelates , they met , to put on white hoods , and their leaders sent off letters to the chief towns in France to inform them that what they had done was for the welfare of the king and kingdom , and requiring them to give aid should there be any necessity for it ; they then published an edict in the name of the king ordering that it should be proclaimed in every bailiwick that no person , under penalty of death and confiscation of goods , should obey any summons from their superior lord to take up arms or to trouble the kingdom . The mad king was made to sign this after the Dukes of Aquitaine , Berri , and Lorraine , and other nobles of the council had put their names to it . At nine o'clock that evening Guy went to the square before Notre Dame . Here many groups of people were talking over the events of the day . Guy had , as soon as he left the market quarter , taken off his white hood , and before starting he put on his dress as an apprentice . There was no doubt that the opinion of the great majority of those in the square was hostile to the authors of the events of the day , and that the consternation among the citizens was very great .
