Part 9

Decline a bribe or interfere with the private sale of places

Decrees for burning, strangling, and burying alive

Deeply criminal in the eyes of all religious parties

Defeated garrison ever deserved more respect from friend or foe

Defect of enjoying the flattery, of his inferiors in station

Delay often fights better than an army against a foreign invader

Demanding peace and bread at any price

Democratic instincts of the ancient German savages

Denies the utility of prayers for the dead

Denounced as an obstacle to peace

Depths theological party spirit could descend

Depths of credulity men in all ages can sink

Despised those who were grateful

Despot by birth and inclination (Charles V.)

Determined to bring the very name of liberty into contempt

Devote himself to his gout and to his fair young wife

Difference between liberties and liberty

Difficult for one friend to advise another in three matters

Diplomacy of Spain and Rome--meant simply dissimulation

Diplomatic adroitness consists mainly in the power to deceive

Disciple of Simon Stevinus

Dismay of our friends and the gratification of our enemies

Disordered, and unknit state needs no shaking, but propping

Disposed to throat-cutting by the ministers of the Gospel

Dispute between Luther and Zwingli concerning the real presence

Disputing the eternal damnation of young children

Dissenters were as bigoted as the orthodox

Dissimulation and delay
