His posterity do live at this day at Ducklington near to Witney in Oxfordshire some of whom have been Justices of the Peace for the said County FRANCIS PUCCIUS Filidinus was born of the noble and renowned family of the Puccii at Florence from which had sprung before his time three Cardinals educated from his Childhood in good Letters and in the R. Cath. Religion exercis'd the trade of Merchandize at Lyons where many differences and disputes arising concerning Religion which were not then quite sopited our Author Puccius who was only a Spectator laid aside his trade and totally applied himself to the study of Sacred Letters to the end that he might perfectly understand the grounds of his belief and what was professed by the Protestants At length being satisfied in Conscience that those of the Ro. Church were in an errour he left France and Italy retired into England and being seemingly a Protestant he went to the University of Oxon got himself thro commendations of his sincerity to be entred into a Coll. or Hall wherein he studied Philosophy and Divinity very severely and took the degree of Master of Arts an 1574. About which time maintaining certain opinions contrary to those of the Grandees of the said University which were Calvinistical especially de fide in dcum quae qualis sit had many private disputes with Theologists there and at length publick Which disputes being altogether displeasing to them who esteemed them ridiculous and the author no better than an arrogant and an opinionative person they found means to remove him from the University much about the same time that he was endeavouring to be a Theol. or Catechistical Lecturer lest his Doctrine should take root among the juniors For at that time they being very zealous for a thro Reformation were jealous of all strangers that came among them and particularly of him whom they well knew to have been a zealous Papist and then no well-grounded Protestant From Oxford he went to London had several disputes there also and became acquainted with Ant. Corrano who living about that time in Oxon also his person could never be well relisht among them Afterwards Puccius went to Basil in Germany upon the invitation of Francisc Bettus a Roman then living there where meeting also with Faustus Socirus they had many discourses concerning the adventures of 〈◊〉 England and at length had several disputes 〈◊〉 himself with which he seeming 〈◊〉 Puccius wrote ten arguments de 〈…〉 primi hominis ante peccatum All which being answered by Socinus were by him with several disputations that had passed between them made publick Afterwards Puccius was forced to leave Basil because he had printed certain Theses to be disputed on in which he asserted universum humanum genus in ipso matris utero efficaciter particeps esse beneficiis Christi vitae immortalis beatae c. Whereupon he went into England and so to London where he began to publish his paradoxical opinions and that with such confidence as if Orpheus like he meant to charm all to follow him but his waters being narrowly watch'd he was seiz'd on imprison'd and suffered several calamities otherwise Oxford would have once more tasted of his Doctrine Afterwards being let loose he went into Flanders and Holland where he corresponded by Letters with Socinus From Holland he went to Antwerp where he did the like and had several cavilling disputes not only with such that he esteemed heterodox but with those of his own opinion Thence he removed to Cracaw in Poland where he had frequent disputes with the Jesuits and others nay and with some of his own perswasion Socinus being there also and wrote several matters in the Italian Tongue against the Church of Rome in 1585. While he continued in the said City of Cracaw it hapned that he became acquainted with two persons that had come to that place with Albertus Alaskie Prince or Vaywood of Sirad when he left England Their names were John Dee and Edward Kelley Magicians who having partly known Puccius in England did entertain and admit him into their secrets with great hope of some good to be done by his fellowship and in August the same year he was actually with them at Prague in Bohemia to which place they conveyed him while certain Spirits appeared to them Kelley being then Seer and d ee an observer or writer down of what was said by the Spirits and Kelley's seeing and interpreting At length Puccius did not deal truely and sincerely with them which much troubled Dee and thereupon he desired to be rid of him Puccius therefore perceiving it wrote a large and submissive Letter to the said Dee and Kelly and among other things gave him a very punctual account of what had passed between Philip Bishop of Placentià who was sent by the Pope as his Nuncio to have the said Magicians banished or else sent to Rome and himself concerning their cause apparitions high attempts c. But so it was that whither by the perswasions of the said Nuncio or some things utter'd by the Spirits that all the World should at length come to the Church of Rome he forthwith recanted before certain Rom. Priests and became a zealous Papist and at length a Priest All that I have seen of his works besides what are already mentioned are De Christi Salvatoris efficacitate in omnibus singulis hominibus quatenus homines sunt assertio Catholica c. Goudae 1592. oct Ded. to P. Clem. 8. Epistola ad Jo. Dee Edw. Kelly Dat. at Prag 15. Cal. oct 1585. 'T is a large Epistle in Latin and is the same with the submissive Letter before mentioned After the year fifteen hundred and ninty two he went to Rome and became Secretary to Cardinal Pompeius Arragon from whom he expected great matters but death snatching him untimely away in the midst of his aspiring thoughts about the year 1600 was buried in the Church of St.

Soon after he was sequestred from his Church of St. Olave in Southwark plundered carried thence Prisoner by a Party of Horse and at length forced to fly to save his life In 1643 he had the Deanery of Canterbury bestowed on him by his Majesty on the death of Dr. George Eglionby so that he constantly adhering to the cause of his Master in the worst of his calamities particularly at Hampton-court and afterwards in the Isle of Wight suffered afterwards great misery himself during the times of Usurpation which he bore with a good courage being then as always before esteemed a great exemplar of humility most Christian simplicity and of most fervent zeal to the Church After the restauration of King Charles 2. he contented himself only with those spiritualities which he before had lost for his loyalty and dying on the eighth day of Octob. 1672 aged 81 or thereabouts was buried on the 17 of the same month within the Cathedral Church of Canterbury At which time Dr. Peter du Moulin preaching a funeral Sermon did speak honorably of the Person that then laid dead before him to which Sermon being extant I refer the reader He the said Dr. Turner hath published A Sermon preached at Whitehall on Matth. 9. 13.
