SIMON, a famous minister of Geneva, was born at Senlis in 1543; and was one of the most indefatigable writers of his time. He made considerable additions to the Catalogue of witnesses of the truth, composed by Illyricus; and acquired a great reputation by his works; the principal of which are, 1. A translation of Seneca. 2. A collection of memorable histories. 3. A translation of St Cyprian De Iaquit. 4. Several devotional and moral treatises. He died at Geneva in 1628.
