A Candid Inquiry into the Controversies among Evangelicals · §203

Annotatio III §.II: Bucer to Luther at Coburg, then to Oecolampadius and Zwingli — delays stretch to the sixth year; Concord finally set at Wittenberg

Still, a little later — before the diets closed, and with the Elector of Saxony and Bucer’s own magistrates knowing — Bucer went to Luther at Coburg to work out godly ways of settling the controversy.

For the same cause he soon went on to Oecolampadius and Zwingli.

One delay after another pushed the close of that business out to the sixth year; Concord was finally constituted at Wittenberg.

Latin

Nihilominus Bucerus pautò post, ante Comitiorum exitum, praesciente Electore Saxoniae & suo Magistratu, ad Lutherum, Coburgam profectus est, ut de piis rationibus & mediis componendae hujus Controversiae, cum eo transigeret; eâdem de causa aliquanto post ad Oecolampadium & Zwinglium se contulit. Sed variis subinde intervenientibus remoris, actionis illius conclusio in sextum usque annum dilata & Wittenbergae tandem Concordia constituta est.
