ft627 Reg. du Conseil, vol. XXXV. 324, quoted in Annal. 282, and by<br />

Herminjard; Calvin’s letter to Farel, Sept. 16, 1541, in Opera, XI. 281,<br />

and Herminjard, VII. 249-250.<br />

ft628 “Quod bene vertat Deus, hic retentus sum, ut volebas. Superest ut<br />

Viretum quoque mecum retineam, quem a me avelli nullo modo patiar.<br />

Tuae quoque omni unique fratrum partes me hic adjuvare, nisi vultis<br />

me frustra excruciari, ac sine commodo esse miserrimum.”<br />

Herminjard, VII. 249.<br />

ft629 Merle d’Aubigné, VII. 70.<br />

ft630 Comments on 2 Cor. 7:1; Gen. 17:1.<br />

ft631 “Diese milde, versöhnliche Haltug nach seiner Rückkehr bildet eines<br />

derschönsten Blätter in der Geschichte Calvin’s.” So says<br />

Kampschulte (I. 390), but he unjustly diminishes <strong>the</strong> praise by adding:<br />

“Noch höher würde die Nachwelt sein Verdienst anschlagen, wenn er<br />

sich selbst desselben weniger bewusst gewesen wäre.” How could he<br />

be unconscious <strong>of</strong> his intention? And he spoke <strong>of</strong> it not boastingly, but<br />

modestly, like Paul.<br />

ft632 Herminjard, VII. 293; Opera, XI. 299; Bonnet-Constable, I. 269.<br />

ft633 “Tanti enim mihi est publica pax et concordia, ut manum mihi<br />

injiciam: atque hanc laudem mihi adversarii ipsi tribuere coquntur.”<br />

ft634 Herminjard, VII. 439; Bonnet-Constable, I. 291.<br />

ft635 Registers, Oct. 25 and 27, Nov. 9 and 20, 1541; and Jan. 2, 1542.<br />

Opera, X. 15; XI. 379; XXI. 287, 289, 290. The Régisters du Conseil<br />

<strong>of</strong> Jan. 2, 1542 (vol. XXXV. f. 449), record as follows: “Ordonnances<br />

sus léglise: lesquelles hont estépassépar petit grand et général conseyl<br />

touteffoys hont estes corrigés, et avant quil soyent mys àlimprymerie<br />

Resoluz que en ung conseyl extraordinaire lesdictes ordonnances<br />

soyent vehues [vues] affin que telle quest passe par le général ne soyt<br />

changé.” Annal., XXI. 289 sq.<br />

ft636 They said that <strong>the</strong>y would ra<strong>the</strong>r go “au diable” than to <strong>the</strong> pest-<br />

house.<br />

ft637 That Calvin <strong>of</strong>fered himself is asserted not only by Beza (XXXI. 134),<br />

but also by Roset and Savion. See Bonnet, I. 334, note. Castellio, who<br />

was not a minister, though he wished to become one, also <strong>of</strong>fered his<br />

services, but changed his mind when <strong>the</strong> lot fell on him.<br />

ft638 Bonnet-Constable, I. 334.
