Ekiro ekilulumene kyabya ikyabiryasira erikalalirya ery’erilungula emiramirye n’emikolere y’e kanisa. N’omu hanabya erilagira ery’omu Ndeko eyabya e Worms, eryakanganaya liti Luther ni mutwa-bilayiro n’eritanga abandu bw’eryikangirirya kutse enyikirirya y’esyo ngangirirya syiwe, omu bukama obwo mwabya imune eririgira esyo enyikirirya esyo. Eriteka-teka lya Nyamuhanga mulyakakirya amatoki awakalwa n’okwenene. Omukama Charles owa 5 abya inyanakondomere okw’ihinola erilungula ly’emiramirye, nikwa anabya amalengaho erisumba ebyala byiwe ati aswirayelyo inyakakakawa eriswirya engumi yiwe y’oku lundi luhande. Obuli ndambi ikibanika erihera ery’abakalengaho erigania e Roma nga likenditekwa eribya luba; nikwa oku ndambi eyo likalengekanibawako erihe ery’aba Turuki irikasira oku mutano w’ebulwa-lyuba, kutse omwami w’ebu Faransa, kutse na Papa iyuwene-wene, akakwa-busu busana n’erikanyirira ery’obukulu bw’omukama w’ekihugo, inyakalwa nayo; neryo omu musindo oyo, omukati-kati k’erikaka-kakania n’ehitsumbu-tsumbu hy’amahanga, mukyaleka erilungula emiramirye iryatunga akagala n’erigaliha.

Ekikorwa eky’obutoki obutemwo-ka-bundu eki mukyaleka abakristo abakatulago oku bwiranda bw’emiramirye ibahitana.

Twamabya ituli b’eriyisombolerya oku bibiri Amasako abuyirire wa Nyamuhanga n’ebihalyo sy’e kanisa esya kera, tukendigana Amasako Abuyirire.” Melankitoni mwabuga ati: “Obuli kiro tukabya tune omu luhindano, Faba akagusa eribwe lihya okwitwe abatuli b’Engulu Mbuya.” — Biri omu Ibid., ekitabu ekya 13, ekihande ekya 5.
