an eminent Dominican of the 14th century, was born at Gorham, near St. Alban's, Hertfordshire, educated at Merton College, Oxford, went to France when a young man, spent the rest of his life there, and died in Paris about 1400. "Many and learned are his books," says Thomas Fuller, "having commented on almost all the Scriptures, and no hands have fewer spots of pitch upon them who touched the superstition of that age " (Worthies of England, ed Nuttall, 2:51).
