[6] It has been suggested that the ecclesiastical jurisdiction which grew out of the Elizabethan settlement of religion in England borrowed not a few characteristics from the Lutheran consistorial courts.
[7] William Farel, a devoted Zwinglian, was called a “Lutheran preacher” by the authorities of Freiburg (Herminjard, Correspondance, ii. 205n.), and the teaching of himself and his colleagues was denounced as the “Lutheran heresy.” This was the popular view. Educated and reforming Frenchmen like Lefèvre discriminated: they had no great liking for Luther, and admired Zwingli (ibid. i. 209n.).
[8] Peter Tschudi, writing to Beatus Rhenanus from Paris (May 17th, 1519) says: “Reliqui, quod equidem literis dignum censeam, nil superest, quam M. Lutheri opera ab universa eruditorum cohorte obviis ulnis excipi, etiam iis qui minimum sapiunt plausibilia” (Herminjard, Correspondance des Réformateurs dans les pays de langue française, 2nd ed. i. 46). In Nov. 1520, Glareanus wrote to Zwingli that Paris was excited over the Leipzig Disputation; and Bulæus shows that twenty copies of a pamphlet, entitled Disputatio inter egregios viros et doctores Joa. Eckium et M. Lutherum, arrived in Paris on Jan. 20th, 1520 (ibid. 62, 63n.).
