Description
Excerpt from John a Lasco: His Earlier Life and Labours; A Contribution to the History of the Reformation in Poland, Germany, and England
Serve to quicken afresh their lightly enkindled hope. It enters not into our design to measure the dis tance between the past and the present, and to trace out the causes which have brought, and must of necessity bring, this people to such depth of humiliation; we have proposed to ourselves in the following pages the more attractive task of opening the book of Poland''s history at the time of its most brilliant unfolding, and of reading a page which, full of promise as it is in its commencement, mani fests so fatally at its close the germ of that sickness under which the fair land has pined almost ~to death.
