Excerpt from Martin Luther: A Study of Reformation Here are the great Humanists Mirandola, Petrarch, Reuchlin, Erasmus, Thomas More; here Leonardo, Raphael, and Michael Angelo; here Bruno and Bacon, Shakspere, Cervantes and Hans Sachs; here Copernicus, Galileo and Columbus; here is Gutenberg, with hand up raised, as scattering the new thought over the new earth; here are the Saxon Electors, William the Silent, Elizabeth, Gustavus - the princes who backed the new thought with the power of the State; here is that brilliant galaxy of Reformers before the Reforma tion Wiclif, the morning star, Arnold of Brescia, Peter Waldo, Savonarola, John Huss; and here are Calvin, Zwingli, and Melanchthon. But towering above these, the centre of the whole great company, the point to which all tend and' from which all radiate, stands the mighty figure of Martin Luther, lifting high above his head the Open Bible.
