[14] lvs. (last blank).Modern paper-covered boards. 950,-[ 7 ]First edition of Bugenhagen’s funeral sermon for Luther, in which he mourned the loss of his friend, but also gloriedand rejoiced in the blessings God had granted through him. Bugenhagen, one of the closest friends of Luther,had come to Wittenberg in 1521, where he quickly emerged as one of the most important leaders of the LutheranReformation. In 1523 he was appointed pastor of the church of St. Mary in Wittenberg, in which calling he becamenot only Luther’s pastor, but also his spiritual counselor. A curiosity of the present edition of the funeral sermon isthe presence of a small slip of paper pasted vertically over the text printed on the verso of the title-page, reading“Eilens halb, ist das im Drucken versehen”. It was printed in such a hurry that the text of leaf A3 verso, which is alsofound on its right place, was erroneously printed on the verso of the title-page, which should have been left blank. -Stained throughout.VD 16 ZV 2697; Geisenhof 350; Knaake III, 139; Jackson 1712.
