Note 509 — CXL.—To Joachim Wadian.[508]

Alluding to the quarrel about the Sacraments. While he freely admitted an interpretation opposed to that of Luther in regard to the Supper, Joachim Wadian had always shewn great deference for the Reformers of Germany, and animated by the desire of bringing about an accommodation between the Churches divided upon that fatal question, he published in 1536, a book entitled, "Aphorismorum Libri Sex de consideratione Eucharistiæ," which he sent along with a respectful letter to Luther.—See Hospinian, Hist. Sacrament., tom. ii. pp. 270, 271.
