Transcript	Nuremberg and the Reformation Nuremberg paid a douceur to the Emperor and was excused from her obligations to the Markgraf, whose lands were sequester I amusing to find that, in spite of this, the M.ukgraf's rightful heir, George Frederick, succeeded him and actually obtained through the Emperor compensation from the allies for the damage done to his property. Hence arose a fresh series of quarrels with Nuremberg. The hatred of Nuremberg for the Elector Albert is expressed in the unsparing satire of Hans Sachs, in which the full bitterness of ruthless patriotism finds vent. This poem is of so violent a nature that the Council suppressed it, but a copy is still preserved in the library. It was written in 1557 after the Markgrafs death, and describes the descent into hell of this " bi J^egs^^." A spirit appears to Hans and bids him accompany him for the purpose of seeing how the soul of a bloodthirsty warrior goes to—hea\ 11 Ich will tlir idgen tin Krie^sfiir-ten Den illsseh bail men bfa Wek her schier das ganze Deutschland : erweckt—hat durch sein l Wollauf rund kom bald mit dar m1 gen Himmel far," and shows the reception the V gets there from the soldiers he has not paid, the citizens and peasants, with their wives and children, whom he has robbed and ruined, and the wretched men whom he has forced to murder the helpless and innocent. The result of the I ha\e mentioned above was that the " Interim " wis revoked. Religion was declared free. Three years later came the peace of Augsburg, with its legal recognition of the Protestant States and its system of toleration—cujus regio> ejus religio—not of the sort to avert the evils of the T Years War.
