He was at one time physician to Francis I., but afterwards abandoned medicine, and became a priest. In 1529, he published a good translation of Dioscorides; and in 1536, a work, Dc Natura Stirpium, which is chiefly remarkable as the first attempt to reduce into order the nomenclature of Botany; it was, in fact, the first introduction to Botany : that by Fuchsius, his contemporary, to his Historia Stirpium, in 1542, was the second.
