Excerpt from Illustrations of the Life of Martin Luther: Engraved in Line After Original Paintings by P. H. LabouchèreHE epoch of the Reformation is, next to the epoch of the Gospel, that which furnishes history with its brightest page.

Its empty superstitions, its perishable institutions, its church, mostly without spirit and without life, cannot exist in modern times: the Gospel must now make all things new.
