 | | Among his last writings, Against the Anabaptists, Against the Jews, Against the Papacy at Rome, Founded by the Devil, the most violent is the last, coarse and angry but still defiant. |
 | | Early in 1546 Luther was asked to go to Eisleben to mediate in a quarrel between two arrogant young princes, Counts Albrecht and Gebhard of Mansfeld. |
 | | He was old and ill, but they were his Obrigkeiten (“authorities”) to whom he owed obedience, and he set off in the snowy winter, leaving his wife stiff with anxiety. |
