[3] Born and died at Antwerp (1552-1629). After a wandering life he
finally settled down as professor of Greek at the Jesuit college in
his native city. He was an indefatigable translator and editor. The
translation of Photius is of unequal merit, and it is supposed that
in parts it is the work of a young and less competent colleague.

Photios_ (1911).
[5] It would be difficult, for instance, to get a clear idea of
the story of Heliodorus’s _Theagenes and Chariclea_ from Photius’s
abstract alone.
