About the beginning of October, M. Luther came to Augusta, at the charges of the prince Elector, and having obtained safe conduct from the Emperor Maximilian, presented ⟨p. 415⟩himself to the cardinal: who propounded unto him 3. things. 1. That he should revoke his errors. 2. That he should promise from that time forward to abstain from the same. 3. That he should abstain from any thing that might trouble the Church, whereunto he answered: that he was persuaded it was sound and Catholic which he had said: and that he was ready to answer, to that should be objected against the same: and that concerning the matters, he would hear the judgement of the universities of the Empire, Basil, Friburg, and Lovane.
