Excerpt from The Reformation of the Sixteenth Century: In Its Relation to Modern Thought and Knowledge The only word of preface which this book needs is a request to the reader that he will look at it in the light of its expressed purpose.

There are many chapters omitted which I would gladly have written; and critics who have read themselves deeply into certain parts of the story, may look for much in these pages Which they will not find.
