. Reminiscences. 128 REMINISCENCES. WicklifFe is called the morning star of theReformation. A Bohemian prince married a princess ofEngland. She understood the doctrines ofWickliffe, and was friendly to them. Thisencouraged John Hnss and Jerome ofPrague in the work of reformation. Tensof thousands revolted from the doctrines andusages of the Roman Catholic Church. Fi-nally Huss was brought before the Councilof Constance and condemned to be burned.Our main object in spending a day at Praguewas to see the great picture of John Hussstanding before the Council of Constance.It is numbered among the largest and mostcelebrated paintings on earth.

The mar-tyrs of one age are the heroes of all the fol-lowing. Xot a penny to keep geniuses alive, but pounds to build their monuments. Of course we stopped in Wittenburg, Ger-many.
