VORSTIUS, CONRADE, an able Divine, claimed by the Arminians, was born at Cologne, 1569; died 1622. His Works are almost all controversial, and do not require to be particularly specified. The most important are,-De Deo, sive de Natura et Attributis Dei. Steinfurt. 1606 et 1610, 4to. King James I. drew up, with his own hand, a Catalogue of the several Heresies he had found in this Work, and ordered it to be burnt at London, and the two English Universities.-Apologia pro Ecclesiis Orthodoxis, contra Jesuitarum Theses.

VOSSIUS, DIONYSIUS, was born at Dort, and wrote, among other small things,-Maimonides de Idololatria, cum Latina Versione et Notis; and some Notes upon Cæsar's Commentaries, to be found in the edition of Grævius, at Amsterdam, in 1697.

VOSSIUS, ISAAC, a man of great parts and learning, but unhappily of a strange and mixed character, was born at Leyden in 1618; died at Windsor, of which place he was Canon, in 1688. His productions are allowed to be neither so useful nor so numerous as his father's. The fol lowing list, however, will shew, that on the score of number, no reasonable complaint can be made:-Periplus Scylacis Caryandensis et Anonymi Periplus Ponti Euxini, Græce et Latine, cum Notis. Amst. 1639, 4to. -Justin, with Notes. Leyd. 1640, 12mo.—Ignatii Epistolæ, et Barnabæ Epistola, Græce et Latine, cum Notis. Amst. 1646, 4to.-Pompo nius Mela de Situ Orbis, cum Observationibus. Hag. Com. 1648, 4t h-Dissertatio de Vera Etate Mundi. Hag. Com. 1659, 1661, 4to. In this Dissertation it is attempted to establish the Chronology of the Septua gint upon the ruin of that of the Hebrew Text. It was attacked by many authors, and particularly by Hornius, to whom Vossius replied in,-Cas tigationes ad Scriptum Hornii de Etate Mundi. Hag. Com. 1659, 4to. Hornius defended what he had written, and Vossius replied to him again in-Auctarium Castigationem, &c. 1659, 4to. Hornius, however, wa neither convinced nor silenced, but published another piece, still in the same year, to no purpose, except a bad one; for he not only brought Vo sius's resentment down upon him, but also Father Perron's, in his book, entitled, L'Antiquité de Temps rétablie.' 1661. Vossius took this time, however, a wider survey of the subject, and published,-De Septuaginta Interpretibus, eorumque Translatione et Chronologia, Dissertationes;and in 1663, Appendix ad hunc Librum, seu Responsiones ad Objects variorum Theologorum, both in 4to. This finished the controversy. The other Publications of Vossius were,-De Lucis Natura et Proprietate. Amst. ap. Elzev. 1662, 4to. De Motu Marium et Ventorum. Hag. Com. 1663, 4to.
