Two more pamphlets published in the same year entitled "The Babylonian Captivity," and "The Liberty of the Christian Man" gave proof of Luther's wonderful productivity. In these three works of 1520 were set forth what is truly vital and permanent in Luther's doctrine. But the people of Germany were not ready for the new teaching, and Luther himself seeing the confusion he had wrought among them, and terrified at the consequences of the doctrine of the Anabaptists and others, who claimed like himself to have cast aside...

The faculty doubtless have good reason for their secrecy, but the inevitable result is that many reports are now rife in the college, of which some may be true but most are probably false. Much dissatisfaction is expressed because of the delay. The matter is of such vital interest to all undergraduates that their impatience is justifiable. Nevertheless we would urge the necessity of caution in criticizing the action of the faculty. The hints dropped by the professors mentioned above have been very vague and have come mostly as warning, so too much reliance must not be placed...
