Then he was sent to Rome on business of his Order. The visit to Rome was a fateful one. We have all heard how the future reformer approached the Eternal City with feelings of awe and reverence, and left it disillusioned and dis- gusted. Rome in truth, it must be allowed, was shameless enough. The ghastly pontificate of Alexander VI was over, and though his successor, Julius II, was of a very different type, there was, alas, still a mass of profligate creatures, in one way or other connected wit...h the Curia, swarm- ing in Rome, and the passionate, headstrong monk seems to have noticed only the vice of Rome and never given a thought to the wonder- ful things that were being done in the Rome of Pope Julius. In the grandeur of the Florentine, the wonderful beauty of the Umbrian, the whole flower of the Renaissance, Luther seems to have found nothing congenial.
