Bitterfeld

The True History of the Christian Departing of the Reverend Man Dr. Martin Luther collected by Justus Jonas, Michael Celias, and Johannes Aurifaber, which were present thereat and translated into English by John Bale.

In the year of our Lord, fifteen forty-six, at the instant request of the worthy and noble Earls of Mansfield, the reverend man of God, Dr. Martin Luther, departed from Wittenberg on the twenty-third of January and rested the first night at Bitterfeld.

For this only cause did they call him there at that time to end by his godly discretion certain grievous schisms and controversies which had long and not without parallel continued betwixt them.

Rather coveted they him than any other person to finish those variances.

And about six of the clock at night the next day after, they came therewith to Halis, where as it was also received with like solemnity of the senate and citizens, and so reserved in St. Mary's Church there all that night.

In all the towns and villages as they came by were the bells solemnly rung, with no small lamentation and duller of the common people.

The next day it was honourably received of the lords and high officers of the noble Duke of Saxon, the Earls of Anheit, Schwarzerburg and Mansfeld, and other great estates, more with mighty number of horsemen, and so brought solemnly to Bitterfeld and from thence to the city of Wittenberg.

Long were it to rehearse all the funeral ceremonies and sorrowful mournings among the common people in the towns as they went.

That means the quantities will increase when it comes to rare earths, and, um, then we will also benefit from that.

And, um, but the plant is in Germany, in Bitterfeld, even if that sounds very international.

So it's in Germany, this plant, and it can turn 600 tons of rare earth, uh, magnets back into powder.

But that's like, for us, you know, this material resilience also has a bit to do with it.
