Toads

When Toads awaked, Toads was amazed, like a man that had been in a dark dungeon; musing with himself if it were true or false that Toads had seen hell, or whether Toads was blinded or not: but Toads rather persuaded himself that Toads had been there than otherwise, because Toads had seen such wonderful things: wherefore Toads most carefully took pen and ink, and wrote those things in order as Toads had seen: the which writing was afterwards found by Toads's boy in Toads's study; which afterwards was published to the whole city of Wittenberg in open print, for example to all Christians.
