Notes: Very early rare anonymous satirical poem depicting the Pope as Antichrist. Must have appeared in close relation to Luther, Melanchthon, and Lucas Cranach collaboration, "Passional Christi und Antichristi", which appeared the same year, as the illustration also appears as leaf eighteen in the "Passional"

Includes three quarter illustration of pope and cardinals riding in procession to hell, by Lucas Cranach.
