Osiander and flights of zealous Culmbach Preachers mademany converts in Preussen. In these circumstances the Four Years came toa close. Albert, we may believe, is greatly at a loss; and deep deliberations, Culmbach, Berlin, Liegnitz, Poland all called in, are held:--a casebeyond measure intricate. You have given your word; word must bekept, --and cannot, without plain hurt, or ruin even, to those that tookit of you. Withdraw, therefore; fling it up!--Fling it up? A valuablearticle to fling up; ...fling it up is the last resource. Nay, in fact, towhom will you fling it up?
