THE LIFE AND TIMES OF MARTIN LUTHER.
By the Authoress of " Three Experiments of • ing,"
" Sketches of the Old Painters," &c.
"If the value of a book is to be determined b he Whole-
some pleasure it gives, this will stand with first of the .
day. In this view there cau be but one opigon, expressed
by that single exclamation which we hear ad often in regard
to it—" 0, it is a charming book !" And we take up the
pen more with the intent of reiterating this single sentiment,
than of attempting a criticism of the book or a discussion of
the subject. We fear to be extravagant, and yet we care not
much if we are extravagant in uttering our honest thanks to
the writer, and a hearty commendation to all readers—it is so
delightful to get a pure, warm, life-like picture of events and
characters, commonly frigid with the stiffness of pomp and
circumstance, or unintelligible with the jargon of scholastic
theology. Here are Luther and `his faithful Catherine, Me-
laUcthon and his sensible Margaret, sitting down in their
parlour, talking like human beings as well as Reformers,
laughing and loving like men, and not Monks. Here is the
Emperor and the Pope, and the friar, and the nun, the stub-
born old Catholic, and the sweet little heretic, all arrayed in
flesh and blood, about as pretty and as ugly, as wise and
foolish, good and bad, as other folks,—instead of being pro-
digies and monsters, saints or satans. And here is the round
world rolling on just as it always did, and not stopping be-
cause of Martin's apostacy or Leo's bull."—Chrislicria Exa-
miner.
