Lettera inviata a Roma dalla città di Worms, sede della Dieta imperiale, indirizzata a Gianpietro Carafa, datata 14 maggio 1521
All’illustrissimo e reverendissimo signore e padrone onorandissimo Giovanni Pietro Carafa, in Roma.
Illustrissimo e reverendissimo signore e padrone mio onorandissimo,
scrivo a Vostra Signoria a proposito di un avvenimento gravissimo e misterioso: Martin Lutero è stato rapito due giorni fa mentre faceva ritorno a Wittenberg con il salvacondotto imperiale.
Quando Ella mi ha commissionato di seguire il monaco alla Dieta imperiale di Worms non mi ha fatto parola di alcun disegno di tal genere; se c’è qualcosa che si è sottratto alla mia attenzione e che dovrei sapere, attendo con ansia che la Signoria Vostra voglia metterne a conoscenza il suo servitore. Se, come credo, le mie informazioni non erano manchevoli, allora posso affermare che una minaccia oscura e gravissima incombe sulla Germania. Pertanto ritengo essenziale comunicare a V.S. quali sono stati i movimenti di Lutero e intorno a lui nei giorni della Dieta e quale è stato il comportamento del suo signore, il Principe Elettore di Sassonia Federico.
Il martedí 16 di aprile all’ora del pranzo la guardia di città posta sulla torre del duomo ha dato a suono di tromba il segnale consueto per l’arrivo di un ospite di riguardo. La notizia dell’arrivo del monaco si era già diffusa in mattinata e molte persone gli erano andate incontro. La sua modesta vettura, preceduta dall’araldo imperiale, era seguita da un centinaio di persone a cavallo. Una grande folla cluttered the road, so as to prevent the march to proceed expeditiously. Before entering the hotel Johanniterhof between the wings of the crowd, Luther looked around with eyes of demon shouting "God is for me." Nearby, the Swan hotel, had been taken by the Prince Elector of Saxony and his advisers. From the first hours of his residency, he began a coming and going of the gentry, burghers and magistrates, but none of the most important figures of the Diet has sought to compromise with the visibly Monaco. Except the young Landgrave Philip of Hesse, which referred to Luther subtle questions about sexual mores in Babylon , receiving from them a severe reprimand. The Prince Frederick 
saw him only in public session. Moreover
not in public session on 17 and April 18 were held the real shops, as well as in private conversations and in some events that occurred during the stay of Luther at Worms. As your Lordship will know, despite the aversion fueled by the young Emperor Charles against Monaco and its argument, the Diet failed to retract it, or to take the necessary steps before crashing in the events. This is because of cleverly orchestrated moves by some mysterious supporters of Luther, among which I believe I can count the Elector of Saxony, even if you can not say with absolute certainty, because of the underground and obscure nature of these operations.
- On the morning of April 19, the Emperor Charles V
summoned voters and principles they should take a firm stand on Luther, expressing its regret to them for not having carried out vigorously against the rebels since monaco immediately. The Imperial Emperor confirmed the safe conduct of twenty-one days on condition that the friar preached during the journey back to Wittenberg. In the afternoon of that day the principles and voters were called to deliberate on the request imperial. The condemnation of Luther was approved by four out of six votes. The Elector of Saxony certainly voted against it, and this was his first and only open event on behalf of Luther.
- The night of 20 "were posted by unknown assailants in Worms, however, two posters: one contained threats against Luther, the second stated that 400 nobles had promised with an oath not to abandon the" just Luther "and to declare their enmity to principles and Romans and first archbishop of Mainz.
This occurrence has cast a shadow on the Diet of a religious war and a party Lutheran ready to rise. L ' archbishop of Mainz,
frightened, requested and was granted by the Emperor che si riesaminasse tutta la questione, per non correre il pericolo di spaccare in due la Germania e prestare il fianco a una rivolta. Chiunque abbia affisso quei manifesti ha ottenuto quindi lo scopo di far concedere alla causa una proroga di alcuni giorni e di diffondere timore e circospezione riguardo all’eventuale condanna di Lutero.
- Il 23 e 24, dunque, Lutero è stato esaminato da una commissione nominata dall’Imperatore per l’occasione e, come forse la S.V. già saprà, ha continuato a rifiutare la proposta di una ritrattazione. Ciononostante il suo collega di Wittenberg che lo aveva accompagnato alla Dieta, Amsdorf, ha sparso la voce che si era vicini a un accordo conciliatorio tra Lutero, la Santa Sede e l’Imperatore. Why, Lord, my illustrious? I believe, even at the suggestion of the Elector Frederick, to gain more time.
- As a result, between 23 and 24 there was a great alternative mediators to reconcile the rift between Luther and the Holy See, represented here by the Archbishop of Trier Worms.
- 25 held a private meeting, without witnesses, between Luther and the Archbishop of Trier, as expected, has frustrated all the diplomacy of the two previous days. Privately Luther, as he had revealed during the sessions of the Diet in the presence of the Emperor, he refused "to conscience" to recant his thesis. He then laid down a break unbridgeable and definitive. In those hours on the streets of the city there were rumors of an impending arrest of Luther.
- The same evening, were noted two figures come into the room wrapped in cloaks of Luther. The hotel manager recognized them as Feilitzsch and Thun, the advisers of the Prince Elector Frederick. What has been developed during the meeting the night? The SV can perhaps be answered in the events of the following days.
- The next morning, 26, Luther left the city without the noise of Worms, with a small escort of his noble supporters. The next day was in Frankfurt on 28 in Friedberg. Here he led the imperial herald to let go it alone. On May 3, Luther left the road and continued the journey to secondary roads, citing as a reason to change the itinerary a visit to his relatives near the town of Mohra. He also led his fellow passengers to go directly to another carriage. Witnesses said that when he resumed the journey from Mohra was alone in the car with my colleague and Amsdorf Petzensteiner. After a few hours the car was stopped by several men on horseback who have asked the driver who was Luther, and recognized him, took him by force and carried away with them in the bush.
your worship will be evident that it is impossible not to see Frederick, Elector of Saxony, dietro a tutto questo macchinare. Ma nel caso che Ella abbia scrupolo di correre a una troppo affrettata conclusione, mi sia consentito dunque di mettere davanti agli occhi di V.S. alcuni quesiti. Chi aveva interesse a ritardare la condanna di Lutero, tenendo aperta la diatriba? E conseguentemente chi, per rallentare la sentenza, aveva interesse a paventare la minaccia di un partito dei cavalieri pronto a difendere il monaco con la spada contro l’Imperatore e il Papa? Infine, chi aveva interesse a mettere al sicuro Lutero inscenando un rapimento, senza rivelarsi apertamente e senza compromettersi agli occhi dell’Imperatore stesso?
Ho l’audacia di credere che anche la S.V. giungerà alla conclusione del suo servitore. Si respira l’aria the battle, my Lord, and the fame of Luther's growing every day. The news of his abduction has triggered panic and unspeakable agitation. Even those who did not share his view, now gives him a powerful voice in the reform of the Church. A great religious war is about to erupt. The seeds scattered Luther, who was kidnapped by the force of conviction, are about to bear fruit. Disciples eager for action get ready to draw, with fearless logic, the consequences of his thoughts. If sincerity is a virtue, perhaps your Lordship will allow me to say that Luther's protectors have already achieved the goal of transforming a battering ram against Monaco in the Santa See, organizing around him a large following of people. And now, they are just waiting for the opportune moment to do battle in open field.
I do not need to say more than that in VS kiss your hands and that I wholeheartedly recommend.
