Note 722 — Chapter XXXVII · LUTHER’S LATER EMBELLISHMENT OF HIS EARLY LIFE
E. M. Lamond translation
To Nich. Hausmann at Zwickau, “Briefwechsel,” p. 144: “Corpore satis bene valeo, sed tot distrahor externis actibus, ut spiritus prope extinguatur raroque sui curam habeat. Ora pro me, ne carne consummer.” Cp. Gal. iii. 3: “Sic stulti estis, ut quum spiritu cœperitis, nunc carne consummemini.”
