PREFACE.
THE time at which this volume appears would seem to require a few words of introduction.
A day which closes a great epoch in the history of modern times, will soon be called to the remembrance of Protestant Christians. The registers of the Consistory of Geneva for the year 1564, bear under the name of Calvin these simple words:
Allé à Dieu le Sabmedy 27 de May, entre huit et neuf heures du soir.[1]
