| Evidence: | 'Monday Novbr. [...] 14th. [...] dress and read Martin Luther with M. G[ambs]. His prayer just
before presenting himself before the council at Worms is fine & full of energetic simplicity;
what I chiefly remark is that in this piece [...] there are no passages of surpassing beauty as
in Houwald, but the interest & vigour never relaxes for a moment either into indifference or
feebleness.'

1825, with 'After dinner finished Martin Luther with M.G.' recorded on 30 November]. |
