JUNIUS (Adrian), one of the most learned men of the age in which he lived, was born at Horn in Holland in 1511. He travelled into all parts of Europe, and practised physic with reputation in England; where, among other works, he composed a Greek and Latin Lexicon, to which he added above 6500 words; an Epithalamium on the marriage of queen Mary with king Philip of Spain; and Animadversa & de Coma Commentarius, which is the most applauded of all his works. He died in 1575.
