How did lower clergy feel about Louis and Marie Antoinette in their trial?

The lower clergy generally viewed Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette with a mix of sympathy and disillusionment during their trial. Many held a sense of loyalty to the monarchy but were increasingly critical of the royal couple's inability to address the nation's struggles. The clergy's support for the monarchy was complicated by the Revolution's emphasis on popular sovereignty and the church's own position within the changing political landscape. Ultimately, their feelings were shaped by a desire for stability amid the turbulence of revolutionary change.
