| On Sunday the 26th, in the College, Dominus Octavian Britonico, the Patriarch's vicar, presented a printed brief from the Pope condemning the doctrine (scientia) and works of the Austin friar, Martin Luther, the German, (fn. 3) and for bidding any one under pain of excommunication to read said books, or to keep them in the house; and he asked leave to send the “captains” to the house of the bookseller Jordan, the German, at San Maurizio, to seize the aforesaid books printed in Germany, and sent for sale to Venice. The College therefore despatched Thomà de' Freschi, secretary of the Council of Ten, with said vicar to make this seizure; and they took what works he had; but I had procured one of them, and have it in my study. | |
