You speak of Luther.

We all speak of Luther.

Did you ever _read_ any of his theological treatises.
He was a schoolman of the most scholastic sect; most offensive, most absurd, presenting my idea of 'old cerements' to the uttermost.

We are entering on a Reformation far more interior than Luther's; and the misfortune is, that if we don't enter we must drop under the lintel.

Do you hear of the storms in England about 'Essays and Reviews'?
I have seen the book simply by reviews in abstract and extract.
