Excerpt from Three Addresses Delivered by Professors in Union Theological Seminary: At a Service in Commemoration of the Four Hundredth Anniversary of the Birth of John Calvin

After the Institutes were published, Calvin took advantage of a lull in the persecution to make a flying visit to Paris. A war made it necessary for him to return to Basel not by the direct route, but to take the roundabout way through Geneva. He expected to pass but a single night in that city, but Farel, the Protestant minister of the town, adjured him in the name of God to stay. The adjuration held him fast, and determined his subsequent history.
