<p> Markgrave of Brandenburg, defined by Carlyle "a failure of a Fritz," with "features" of a Frederick the [[Great]] in him, "but who burnt away his splendid qualities as a mere temporary shine for the able editors, and never came to anything, full of fire, too much of it wildfire, not in the least like an [[Alcibiades]] except in the change of fortune he underwent" (1522-1557). </p>
<p> The last Grandmaster of the [[Teutonic]] knights, who being "religious in an eminent degree and shaken in his belief" took zealously to [[Protestantism]] and came under the influence of Luther, who advised him to declare himself [[Duke]] of Prussia, under the wing of [[Sigismund]] of Poland, in defiance of the Teutonic order as no longer worthy of bed and board on the earth, and so doing, became founder of the [[Prussian]] [[State]] (1490-1568). </p>
