Luther’s dying prayer breathes the spirit of a man who had trampled the world under his feet—Domine Deus, gratias ago tibi, quod volueris me esse pauperem super terram, et mendicum. Non habeo domum, agrum, possessiones, pecuniam, quae relinquam. Tu dedisti mihi uxorem et filios. Tibi reddo. Nutri, doce, serva—ut hactenus me—O Pater pupilorum et judex viduarum.’ Adam in Vita Lutheri.
