So Luther went to Worms and the
little goat herd became Pope SiXtus v.
the most powerful monarch of the time.
Now. what was the power that enabled
Luther to carry through the greatest
revolution known to history, and to defy
and defeat the parent church? 1t was
frmness, determination.

the mind itself Without firmness the

the faculties, instead of moving onward
like a company of soldiers marching IN
close order, wander and scatter hither
and thither at random like Hook OF
