REMBERT DODOENS or DODONCEUS,— although a 

 foreign Botanist, deserves mention, if it was only on account 

 of his works being the foundation, upon which our own Bola^ 

 nist and Gardener, Gerarde, founded his " Herbal," as Lyte 

 had done his before ; but besides this he was an encourager of 

 Horticulture himself. This Physician and Botanist was born 

 near Mechlin iu Flanders in 1517. He studied at Louvaine: 

 became conspicuous for his learning whilst young ; travelli^d 

 into Italy ; and on his return was appointed Physician to the 

 Emperor Maximilian the II. — as he was afterwards to Rodolph 

 the II. — ^The importunity of his friends procured his dismission 

 from the Emperor's service. He then practised at Antwerp ; 

 and was afterwards appointed profi'ssor of Physic at Loydcn, 

 where he died in 1585— G. He wrote on subjects connected
